Kim Rodrigues Poet Monorhyme

Homeward Bound

I fight nightmares of Snowmageddon fright.
I write a text message, that all’s not right.
Tucked in tight traffic, simmering twilight.
Frozen snow white streets – overwhelming plight.
Tires stuck in icy bite, no bed tonight!
All night abandonment – home out of sight.

Kim Rodrigues (c) 2017

*simmering – to be filled with a strong feeling that is difficult to control
**snowmageddon - name of storm
