Forever Winter
Listen to poem:
Forever Winter
David J Walker
Where are you going and why
I
At 10
Had no answer
I
at 10
and at 10 in the am
thought only of warming myself
in the afternoons half-hearted
winter sun
I at 10
Had no one to fall back on
Except for the crush of 10 inches of pure snow below
Except for the plush of 10 inches of pure clouds above
And the prospect of falling high or low
Was of little matter to me at 10 and
10 again in the morning
Where was I going and why
I
At 10
Had no way of knowing
Only that the snow was blowing
Falling
And Winter may last forever
