Their Winter Bed
Something about a sunny winter's slanting light
Makes one want to spend sunny lazy afternoons
In sunlight that seems just to lift world's weight
While in one's heart there beats merry tunes
Winter afternoons wonderful time for us
Living our wintertime without a scar
Worked through years that have made all difference
This wintertime is made up of things that just are
Wintertime prepares one's heart for most anything
The slant of the afernoon's sun impedes despair
Even plants, animals overcome all winter's affliction
They sway and dance with the slant fo warm air
Stand_ears erect, twitch different ways listens
As if they are holding their warm moist deep breath
Now renewed by the slanted light run the distance
To their winter's bed, where this time winter won't mean death
