<p>This anthology of poetry and prose by poets from around the world delves into the many celebrations that begin early in the season and the doldrums and melancholy that winter can bring. There are themes dealing with Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's Day, Valentine's Day, and Mother's Day. There are also themes dealing with love, family, memories, and loss, including the loss of a spouse, children, pets, parents, homes, and oneself. We all celebrate and grieve from every corner of the world. While winter may be snowy in one part of the world and stormy in another, and Christmas may be during a cold season in the North and warm in the South, we are all humans and can relate to each other on the simplest levels of joy and grief. On these basic levels, we can comfort and empathize with one another to get through the struggles of what seems cold and dark, just like the months we refer to as "winter." Each poet is represented by their dialect and word spelling to demonstrate where they are from. Every poet is housed in their own "chapter," which tells a little about them and their location. Curated and edited by Brandy Lane, of Where Beautiful Inks LLC, this is her first collaborative anthology.</p>

<p>When night took hold, would he stand in awe at those bodies forever beyond his touch? The trunk was far wider than he was tall, black shining, gnarled, at first glance it reminded him of an ancient yew with many trunks intertwined as one like wide ropes, knots and boles, a parody of a tree with no leaves or needles, but arrays of small bones, none of its branches swayed in the breeze. It stood brooding, motionless like no other tree he had ever seen.Its trunk formed of faces screaming to be free, arms and legs entwined with bodies locked together for eternity, its main branches composed of long bones fused as one, branching off into smaller versions of themselves, a grotesque mockery of natural trees, ending in bud-like structures of knuckles, small bones and teeth looking much like fruit and flowers.Prydain stood eighty feet tall, it's all-encompassing branches appeared just as wide casting a bone-chilling shadow across the snow.Almund took a deep breath as he stepped back, slipping on a half-buried pile of bones that crunched beneath his boot. At first glance Prydain looked as though conjured by some mad sorcerer, not grown from this good earth, but this was no trick, for all its deathly stillness he could feel its energy, not formed by man but planted, its root deep within the earth, abet many years ago in this rich soil for the veneration of Achren</p>
