Clouds are weeping at my door
Puddles tearfully trickle in
Moonlight falls, whisper thin
Shingles chatter on the roof
Winter sends her lonely kiss
Restless winds, a soulful hiss
Tousled twigs caress the windows
Shattered leaves sorrow down
Willows writhe, orchids frown
Shutters sigh outside these walls
Thunder moans in evening gloom
Wilted love, that she cannot bloom

So descriptive - painting a picture with words.

I really enjoyed this one. A good use of the ABB rhyme scheme, and the seasonal metaphor for lost love is apt.
The last line is one syllable longer than the previous stanzas (8 instead of the 6,7,6 preceding), so the established metre is thrown off - I'd drop the 'she' to make a continuous lilting cadence to the end. Perfecto!

Your work is a dance, blindfolded…It spins visions in the mind.
Your descriptions are majical. Not a word wasted.
Sublime. thank you
