COLD

Cold January day….
Dark, too dark on
both sides of the day….
Morning and evening ….
Grey cold controlling the
hedges on both sides
of our house ….

Winter sometimes can
be annoying - unwelcoming -
causing crankiness in my nose,
in my throat and in my soul.
Florida, Arizona, the Caribbean
would be so much easier
and comfortable and colorful….

Radiators, a fireplace, help,
so too tea, hot chocolate,
even chocolate chip cookies
in cold milk - so too
a big blanketed bed.
Better: this year, February
don’t show. Come March 15th.
