december light

So the lights are about to go out on the 21st, only to be reborn soon after, but in the 5 minutes they shone this month i ran outside to try and capture it. I wasn't alone there -bugs were still around, mid-december



even though there was frost on the ground



and on the moss



though most of the leaves had fallen



some green tried to persevere



as did some red



it reminded me of Dylan Thomas; it raged, raged against the dying of the light
