Midnight's here
I'm still not done
I can't stay up any longer
Too bad the year's over; I did my level best
To keep it in place
But Time keeps rolling on,
And down I go
Down Nature's Ladder.
There it goes,
There it goes again.
What a sour finale.

i liked the last line a lot. it was a brilliant ending and it really hit hard. it described winter very well, being the final/last season. so good take on the prompt, and nice imagery.
thanks for entering and goodluck
