Listen to poem:

An Ugliness of Winter Winds

An Ugliness of Winter Winds
David J Walker

Cold as the old north wind 
may blow
Temperatures 
well below 
The freezing points of heaven 
or hell
the tide swells without 
contrition
the moon rises without 
permission
snow sneers 
	 	as winter veers 
well beyond a
		path of tears 
March winds bring an ugliness
		To winter

Nice writing, David. I enjoyed your poem, and I totally agree that "March winds bring an ugliness to winter." However, they also tell us spring is on the way! Thanks for sharing.
