The Winds of Winter
Intrepid these winds that swirl through the listless night,
On white marble clouds that coalesce in silence
They carry a certain malice,
Surging forward from the deep ocean far
These winds in the cold gloom
No deliverance they send, nor compassion
Just the grey looming vapors of the coming Winter
Gathering from afar,
A stark panorama in exhausting frames of vision,
I stand beneath their medieval fury.

Often the weather embodies more than just itself. Great flow and language in this poem. It was a pleasure to read.
Thanks, Neocon.
It was both the night winds and 'winds' of misfortune in my life that inspired this one.
Like the winds,
we all are destined to surge forth and reach a higher ground.
Great writing, as always!
Thanks for posting!
