Clink-Clink

diamond-like
sunlight sparkles
on virgin snow
fresh air tingles
rosy cheeks...
you see your breath
lips shaping
smoke rings...
sniffles clink-clink
like crushed ice
from a paper cup
as they strike the ground ~
ooh! you can't feel
your fingers or toes

OMG! This used to happen to me as a kid in Virginia. Always stayed out in the snow too long, frozen toes, nipped at nose. But glad to be retired in sunny CA.

Ooh, CA eh? Well, I'm in sunny Chicago: Blue skies, fresh air -- 18 degrees above zero... Another day in Paradise. Eat your heart out, Jean! Laughter, Gershon

I am thinking about how much I love cold winter air now.

No matter how cold I get, I always feel the tip of my nose, funny, huh?

Interesting Michelle. Same with me! The nose knows. I guess. Hate when it drips in winter though! Cheers, Gershon
