DEATHS IN WINTER


What is it about having to grieve in winter? 
Maybe it's because all around is death; 
plant-life, trees, even the sky often appears 
inanimate in a way, unlike other seasons -- 
it isn't white so much as no-colour - and the snow,
fresh no longer, it seems dead as well.  
To then experience the loss of someone
you love; it's too much.
