Blizzard

We are waiting
The sky does not breathe
Slowly we fall to bitter cold
Still nothing moves
We are waiting
It is so cold
My nape goes hot
And knows the snow
In the air
In stillness
It anticipates

Nothing misty in this vivid description of the approaching blizzard. Well done!

Wonderful writing. I love the line "The sky does not breathe" words of a true poet. Here in Kansas we were told the snow was coming and yet we still wait, so far we are only seeing the bitter cold temps and ICE. Smiles from Lolita
