Snows Are Not The Only Things In Winter Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

Winter comes hand in hand
With nature to turn everything
Cold, cloudy, snowy, foggy, and
Even a lot of other natural phenomena...
Snow is white and lovely
In all places around us just
To turn nature's carpet into
A white dress anywhere and everywhere...
Scattered and fallen leaves
Are clearly seen
Here and there...
Rains come and go just
To turn the thirsty land
Into a smiling land....
Winds blow strongly entering
Through our closed windows whispering
Like anything that whispers
Every now and then...
Winter is not a short season, but
It is longer than Fall and even Spring...
Reading Winter's tales and novels
Is a top priority to most of us...
All chimneys are seen clearly
Anywhere and everywhere...
Firewood is piled up around
All houses just to add it
To all fireplaces and
Even to some big stoves...
Brown chestnuts are roasted
Continuously just to make all
Winter's days as lovely and great...
Teas, herbal teas, coffees, almonds, and
All hot drinks are presented to
All visitors in-doors and
Even in those twenty-four coffeehouses...
Snow-men are made by all curious neighbors
Just to turn the out-doors lovelier...
Woolen clothes are seen on people and
A lot of lovely umbrellas are clearly
Seen carried by people who walk outside...
Lovely sights are greatly and clearly seen
Anytime, anywhere, and everywhere....
We all love Winter's times
Simply because they bring all of us together...
No one can ignore all Wintry nights
Simply because we clearly see
All wintry phenomena like
Thunder-storms, lightening, storms, hurricanes,
Tornadoes, tsunamis, floods, flash floods, etc. are clearly
Seen during all Winter's days and nights beautifully...
