1.2 Signs of Winter by Anna Rae

• A chill you get when you awaken.
• The need to turn on the heat.
• The desire for hot chocolate with whip cream.
• The desire of peppermint.
• Heavy and warm clothes.
• The grabbing of your boots.
• Stepping out and your breath cuts short.
• Inhaling ice cold air.
• Exhaling what seems like smoke.
• Looking up at the low, heavy, and grey clouds.
• Digging your hands into your pockets.
• Thanksgiving decorations are gone.
• Red, green, and white stream the houses.
• Fat men in red and white seem to have invaded.
• Penguins and snowman are assisting the fat men.
• Everyone around you is wearing heavy coats and some are wearing boots.

Winter...

Winter...is here.
