Alone against the rainy fall,
the dim orange glow is her guiding light.
March winds swirl around her
She walks past scarf tucked just below her chin
hands stuffed into pockets.
She continues and walks briskly
avoiding the puddle.
The gentle scuffle of her shoes upon pavement.
The lamp light beckoning her to safety.
[waiting for the cozy warmth of fire]
wrapped up in November's abundance
breathing the cool air
of Octobers promises.
Crunching on a slightly frosted
September dream
December remembers.
Cool crystals melt on her fuzzy gloves
Her nose a little bud of cherry red,
the February rivers make the streets quiet
boots crunching over a playful soliloquy.
She is eternally grateful for this
beautiful painting with each passing step she created
Alone with the seasons swirling around her,
December remembers.
Author notes
Elisa December this is for you.
The Winter and early Spring months with some icy coolness. But it still has woman power. Elisa is awesome and she deserves this. I have no idea what the concept of this poem is but this is to pay homeage to my darling sister.

Elisa ( I'm now calling her December ) is a beautiful person, Like the Winter and Fall months they aren't all the same each year they have a different sort of beauty. She is in fact very beautiful and I consider her to be my sister. I cherish our friendship very much. Thank you for the commet Andy!

I take from this a woman who enjoys the fall and winter seasons. She delights in the experience. Rather a different poem for you. I enjoyed it.
