Definitions will spawn in a new window (Wordnet):

Winter is a short walk away

kripto

bitter, crisp chilled air	1
visible breath	2
Winters kiss approaching	3
bringing a freezing death	4

Naked bare trees	5
dried leaves	6
fallen and falling	7
ground bound	8

All people bundled	9
layers upon layers	10
gathering, huddled	11
together	12

behind four walls	13
all technologically sound	14
comfortable, naked	15
while hot air blows	16

the outside though	17
still bitter and lonely	18
and empty, no company	19
the outlining area, scarce	20

And as far as I can see	21
I can not	22
there is nothing	23
but lit houses	24

little oasis'	25
shelters from the bitter cold	26
the lonely wasteland	27
a defense from low temperatures	28

but yet some are not protected	29
Little kids effected	30
winter seeps in through	31
making it past affordable windows	32

so it is not a priority	33
insuring comfort ability for all	34
instead many fall short	35
to defend against the winter	36
left unprepared for the snow	37
