winter has come
November 5, 2014
red leaves
have fallen
on earth’s floor,
curled up
like blood
when the chill
sets in;
or like bodies
curling up
for warmth.
the mud
was frozen
with surprise,
for coldness
came by
and dropped in.
the trees
shivered with delight,
and acorns fell down
from shock
for winter
had come,
lacing her beauty
through the forest;
as she danced (skated or skimmed)
with the mist
on the river.

TeenInk.com/fiction/romance/article/p635e0fd0bdf1663e/To-kiss-the-decking-king/ say hello to a happy ending. Thanks so much for your support. You've really given me much confidence as a writer. I never thought I could finish something this long. Your comments really, uh...drove me. Thank you.

Hey! You're not bothering, honest. :) Also, thank you. For commenting and giving me the link. You didn't have to finish it for me, if you were tired of them,; but thank you so much. It means a lot. Also, haha; I can connect to about our writings being approved. It does take them awhile, eh? :) Thank you, again!

The story's private by the way, sometimes I feel like we'll all die before our stories get approved

Can't really relate to this since I live in a tropical country. I mean, very tropical. But it's nicely written, and one of the few poems that's ever held my attention. Good use of...is it figures of speech. Anyway, it's that girl that's writing those stories about Starling and Louri. I'm actually tired of them, but I decided to just finish up for you. Hope I 'm not bothering you. After this one there's one more to go. Here's the link-TeenInk.com/fiction/romance/article/p59f5425650471e77/Troy-Lawrence-and-his-loss/
I wrote this, when I recently went camping. I thought I should share the beauty I saw, so here it is. I hope ya'll enjoy it, and thank you for taking the time to read it. :)
