New work

The warmth within

Oh how I despise

The frightfully cold delight

The wind is curling my toes

And blowing me to and fro

.

I can’t stand it anymore

I just want it to thaw

Just go away, pesky snow

On your way, begone, go

.

I’m freezing all the way to my bones

So cold, even in my home

Even this cup of tea

Is doing nothing for me

.

Rain rain and rain again

Floods ahoy, when will it end?

The bridges are closed

There’s rain to my toes

.

Breathe…… Breathe

It’s not forever

It will pass

Never say never

.

And where are the flowers?

In my wanting voice

Where are you hiding?

When can I rejoice?

.

It’s nearly here

Almost out of the woods

The forest flooded too

If only it could

.

Watching the raindrops

Trickle the window

Tracing with my finger

To and fro

.

Till that first day of warmth

Feel that sun on your skin

Oh how it feels good

Feeling the warmth within
