January

January January pouts like a petulant child, Crying with rain and dreary. “Why is fun out of favor now? I wished for more attention and approval, A relief from fury and fever pitch of perfecting, A time to revive and renew, and now Rest and relief have cunningly come, and yet Suddenly, hollowness and longing, Not for the flashy and flamboyant past, But for the manger.
