Winter Coat

In ebb and flow of wind, the rag doll’s tossed
                             icy fingers coat the flesh -
                           warmth of car, ditch my coat.

The months of winter must be discribed. It's the world talking, telling us to take care.

This is a fun read. It took me a few moments to realize the rag doll icy fingers were the wind--at least that is my perception. Nice to have a little haven inside a car. Thanks!!

This is a great Kimo dear Kim. I’ve never tried this form before but you have made it inspiring. I too love,’ In ebb and flow of wind’ and I would be one of the first trying to get into the car for warmth and comfort (not very weathered) You have skilfully described so much in a few lines. Really enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing. Hugs and blessings :):)
