The Cold of Winter

The cold of Winter makes me shake Oh no! Here comes the first snowflake I watch it as it falls and floats I wish I'd worn a bigger coat It falls upon the frozen ground Landing there without a sound Others come to join there fare I tell you now, it's just not fair Here comes more from up above "Dang it!! Where'd I put my gloves?" The chilly air brings ruthless bite The falling snow makes all things white I shiver at the seasons change I'm not prepared for this exchange Forget the reason I'm outside I guess I'll just go back inside Rockman :-) Written for Francine Roberts' contest, "A Winter Couplet"
