Cold

Cold outside, 
piercing, glacial gloom
Bitter, frosty, frigid, icy-
Cold…
The wind breathes undeniable upheaval;
Murdering the sizzling sun.
Bringing undone 
Cheerful cordial enthusiasm 
To curl with humility upon a heated blanket,
Inside my home.
I spy the condensation on the windows
Haunting horrible cold
Penetrating tooth ache
Prickling goosebumps
Bone chilling
Fear filling
Cold.
