LIKE LATER

Zero
Wind chill
Hear the wind
How it whistles
And I in my bed
Pulling the covers tight
I think of brewing coffee
The image of that steaming cup
Then I see ice caked on my window
Glance at my wife    asleep    and snuggle-up

Snuggles sound a whole lot better, Daver! A sweet and fun write, Jack Frost will envy you both. Thinking "cakes"...I'd better head downstairs before my son comes home for dinner. So wishing you and yours the best! Love, Mikki

That's the best decision right there, Dave...coffee can wait when you can choose snuggling up! I've enjoyed this warm picture hanging here.. It's 24 degrees here today and I'm glad I don't have to out! Stay warm.. Love, Annalise

It's such a comforting feeling to hear the winds howling outside while you are snuggled up warm in bed, thinking of that steaming coffee (in my case tea). Your etheree takes us from bitter cold to warm comfort in such a delightful way, Daver. Hope the winter isn't being too harsh, but where you live I'm sure this description applies. Excellent poem, dear friend. Love, Carolyn
