Why Am I So Cold Dad

‘Why am I so cold dad, the cold I cannot cut?'
‘Well it’s snowing really hard son and icy underfoot.’
‘But my brothers and my sisters, it doesn’t bother them,
so why am I so cold and from where does all this stem?’
‘I wouldn’t really worry son but I couldn’t say for sure,
at the moment as far as I’m concerned there’s no specific cure!’
‘But why am I so cold dad it really isn’t fair?
I shouldn’t be this cold dad for I’m a polar bear!’

Hi Ron, one word touched me, Cure? Fear of dying is my worst enemy. I ask myself? Why did i grow so quickly? Why? i just met you, i pray you already wrote many books for others to learn how to live only in the Moment. Terry

Hi Terry. Fear of dying is also a concern of mine. If you dwell on it too long it can be pretty scary. We cannot change the inevitable and everyone has the same problem to face. Living in the moment and enjoying all that is good seems to help. Best wishes...Ron xx

Quite clever, RT, and the ending really floored me. Didn't see it coming at all. Best wishes, Gershon

I'm really working on the twists in my poems so you couldn't have given me a better compliment Gershon. Best wishes...Ron :)
