A Lonely Winter Wind

The howl of the winter wind cries over the treetops and through the soul A north wind makes the cold colder and the old feel older The old man snores under a pile of wool blankets dreaming of a time when life was full with flavor Living long is out living love ones a lonely winter wind remembers Nothing like a haircut on a windy day hat heads and button coats The heat of summer makes slow motion the chill of winter hurries into a rush Layers and layers for warmth not comfort chap lips and runny noses welcome hot coffee and coco Nothing as beautiful as a frozen smile to warm a chilled heart Hot foot bath heats the body and rosy cheeks are in season Blow lonely winter wind blow inside the hearth of home is shelter This is gonna to be a three dog night
