Twilight afternoon,
gray skies drift to midnight blue,
sunlight seeped away.
Chill seeps through layers,
frosted breaths seek out embers,
glowing in the dark.
Orange glow reaches,
catching with fiery hands,
to stave off the night.
Staves crackle alight,
warmth emanates, embraces,
cozy winter night.

Author’s Note: It has been quite a while since I’ve written any poetry other than a haiku. It felt appropriate to honor the winter solstice.
