Royality, Transformed

A poem

The tree,

Once resplendent

In her autumn garb

Of red and gold and green

Stands bare, naked...

...until nimble Jack Frost,

With his clever fingers,

Dresses her once again.

A beauteous princess

In a glittering gown, white

She shimmers as she sways,

Glinting in the bitter wind.

The first frost arrives.

The first frost arrives.
