sleeves flap and freeze
ice forms - rings my hood
sink deep into Sherpa robes
forest is winter dark
branches black overhead
pond hardens for skates
ice pellets rain
sharp icy stings
dog hides in robes
runs back inside
she's done her cold time
Oooh I need some of those sherpa robes. Love the dog running back inside. Smart dog! Mine is senile and keeps wanting Out. We argue:)
ReplyDeleteBoy, I guess that means winter is coming.
