Northeaster Winds Rise

Chilled the January air
 shaken and stirred by suffused zephyr winds
 shimmering icy foam gurgled frigid in the froth
 singing, swirling, whining tempest
 lathered howling squeals thru the trees;
naked skeletons undressed by winter fall
 gasping breaths guttural involuntary convulsions
 tempestuous tease in tornadic twinning gales
 breathless mistrals meandering the trades
 slipping and sliding along the fluid swells
agitated gesticulated waves palpitating
 screech screams, squealing squawking shrieks
 raw bittered bites breaching lung and sinew
 merciless rigor of glacial numbing
 the piercing northeaster yowls
ascending surge of winter awakening rise.
