I found the use of the word heraldry in this poem interesting. Every so often the difference between different Englishes is brought home to me. Usually through work, but occasionally as now on this site. Coming from England with our quaint English, pomp would be the more usual choice, or ceremony to shock.

Yes - we are all more than ready for winter to depart - and there are signs that spring is waiting in the wings. These red berries are evidence. Great entry for the contest.

Yes, they are like the royal robes of a king, marching out in splendour, having vanquished the enemy of winter. Very creative, and a lovely image to accompany. Best wishes for the contest.

Hi C2, I live in Illinois...
and just before I left we had a lot of snow...
but you could see where things were starting to plume...
it's time for Winter to go into hibernation...
and Spring to wake up...

You have made excellent use of your six words in this very timely piece. I don't remember a year when people yearned for spring more than they do this year. Good use of personification
