Random Thoughts *37* Double Acrostic/ End Line Word

Ferocious winds, sleet turned -------------------- Snow.
Another day off of work, poetry -------------------- and
Time to shovel my drive. 25 MPH ----------------Winds
Hold me hostage in my abode. I ----------------- Keep
Enclosed, I rose from slumber. -------------------- Me
Rattled, never,  I have heat where I'm ------ Contained.
                                                                   
Whistling winds whisper in my ear as I'm ------ Shoveling
Inches and feet, pierced by icy sleet a ----------- Slushy,
Nasty mess. Continuing to fall, no break, the -- Snow
Teases me. My third cup of coffee, shaken, ---- Mixed, 
Encased in a thermos with Amaretto Swiss. ----- Icy
Rain, little spears, fierce in these windy ------- Conditions

Cold icy write with a cold uncomfortable end line but then there is the Amaretto Swiss to help the day with poetry soup friends to make it a grand day. Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my work. Sara
