To Find Warmth

it’s frigid here
no lingering warmth
to wrap myself in 

It feels like 
your touch 
encircling me

I’m choking
on this air
you placed here

why can’t I
find the warmth
of this hell
you placed
me in

This is great Sandy, not great like hey this is great!!! Rather great in the emotions and wordplay that show your talent, no doubt you're glad to get this one out!

You have done the impossible! We always say, 'When Hell freezes over,...' Your talented pen has accomplished that. Interesting ink, my friend. Warmest wishes, Gershon

Thank you so much Gershon, we seem to have your yesterday's weather today...it started out 50 and nice, then came the snow and wind...they made a point to tell us about the plane that slid off the runway...luckily the snow didn't stick here at all... hugs

What do they say about hell freezing over? Your poem brought chills to me my friend and tears that fall to the ground frozen. Such a sad and heartbreaking poem. Sending some warmer hugs your way.
