Snowstorms and Shortbread Cookies

Snowstorms and Shortbread Cookies

I'm tired of running,

from the knife wielding winds

you bring

blood lusting after light and colors;

hard and ready to bleed

the living gray

green fields hum,

sullen

trembling with fear, as they

hide under white blankets;

feeling extinction will come

Winter, I swear;

if not for your roaring fires

shortbread cookies

and the copulation; you inspire

I'd have no use for you at all.

The spring is to turn the corner, the first rays of Sun that melts the snow and defrost our hearts are grateful after a long Winter.

A salute to both.

T, I like Cosmo; it`s an interesting universe, and I`m way better than Robert Frost, bro. lol, when it comes to marbles...poetry is highly subjective in my opinion, poets tend to like things that remind them of themselves, this one was difficult to write, and although it`s not one of my favs, I like it enough, and wanted to post four that day, for some reason... it does have its moments but it never came together for me to `love` it, I appreciate your comment though, it`s encouraging...thanks

Sis Cherie, I`m walking with ya on that one....strangely enough, I don`t mind 3 weeks of winter; the 6 months is a bit much though, I`ll do my best to hang in there, my friend....cheers

Hi Christopher! This poem states well the discomforts of a long winter, such as we also get in Minnesota, as I'm sure you know! Also like the pleasures brought by winter, "roaring fires shortbread cookies and the copulation." Also I like winter for reading, though I am grateful spring is coming, as I do read year round.
