Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

I Hid In the House Frightened

Yesterday delightful. Sixty degrees.
Could have warmed us up.

I hid in the house, frightened by the love of it.

Today I am sitting in my yard, wearing zebra pajamas.
A zip up suit with a pink fringed hood and a tail.
The tail is not comfortable, but cute.

The wind is brisk, almost too much so.
I do not care.
I am content.

Soaking up nature’s offerings.

M. L. Kiser January 10, 2019 at 8:07 AM I can see you in that suit, including the tail; you should tie a big bow on the tip of it. Cute poem. Caren Krutsinger January 10, 2019 at 6:08 PM Thank you M.L. I wear this suit so often the neighbors think it is a uniform.
