Notes About The Poem

              Polar Bear:

 

* As Cinderella; quick change of personality ...

  Weather changes from minus degrees to plus degrees from week to week :)

 

 

                  Dividers

- Apple Cheeks -

Pitilessly cold

Weather in February

As Cinderella    *

I feel my cheeks flaming red

Meeting with the polar bear

This one gave me a chill, though it is very warm here, almost summer like this week. Hope your days get warmer and your smile glows brightly my friend.
