My challenge for this New Year was to pen a poem for every day of 2015. I lasted till the end of March, then decided it was taking over my life so it is now amended to 100 poems in 100 days! After I've reached 100, I'll add any as and when they may appear.

9. Last leaves falling
I've tried so hard to love winter,
envious of those who long for days to shorten,
early closing of curtains,
lighting the lamps.
How I mourn those last leaves falling
and sigh at growing darkness
but I know as each night passes
it is one day nearer Spring
