cold days

The temperature has dropped
and i am surprised at the change in my mood.
From a point of going forward with purpose,
to being muddled and listless.
Yes this is what i struggle with every year.
Winter is not the fun, short lived thing it was in Houston;
it is long, drawn out and grey.
The struggles i have with vision and my life,
just wait and it is not really that cold yet,
just down to freezing.
the garden must be cleared for there are many good things to have there,
peppers, leeks and tomatoes.
How do i describe this?  not well at all.

"Muddled and listless" seems to be contagious. I have caught the bug as well.
