Cold & Windy
David J Walker
They said it on the radio
this morning
at 7:30
A cold dry wind
coming in from
the North-Northwest
If I were to invest
Myself in Winter/Stock
Inhumane the Solstice/Clock
Drops 5 seconds every hour
Shortening the time it takes
To freeze the lakes
In the middle of the city
If I were to divest
Myself of Winter Winds
I would follow my
snowbird friends
to Florida
the land of white sands
and warm waters
Why does every wind Howl
Like Winter in December
With nothing to say
except it’s name
Over and over
I miss the defining blizzards
Of December
Going honestly about its
Death threats
The wind it sends to the
Prairies are
Meant as harassments only
Even the Winter knows
How lonely
The sounds of nothing
Rushing by
The lost horizons and
Deep blue sky
Turning gray
It will be cold today
They say
On the radio
Cold and windy
I never being delighted for any Valentine’s day
As past 10 years of wedding does not came with any special day!!
But This Valentine’s day I experienced something new,
He took the pain and try to remove my blues
He cooked all the meals of the day, and doesn’t argue with me
And it is indeed is a special gift which he has given me
for getting any precious gift earlier doesn’t bring that joy
In all the arguments and harassments all joy gets destroy
Hope we will daily celebrate this valentine day
Full of cheer , happiness , party and gay!!
Life is so precious, so hard to keep.
Daddy died, a baby were discovered.
Secretly growing in my young daughters body.
A mixture of all cultures, all races but my first chance at a legacy.
The clashes in the mixture were brutal.
The blows were deep.
The killing words, the verbal harassments, the evil projected onto white faces.
A beautiful child, chubby cheeks, vibrant smile, loving nature searching to be accepted by those she loved. Asking little with so much to offer.
Oh how I love that child.
I want to protect her.
I want her to be safe.
I want her to know that someone loves her unconditionally.
But it is not about me..
She is now an adult...
I have no right to her business...
I can not save her life.
Whether this love can be transmitted over thousands of miles is the question.
Whether she feels this love...and the love of God that can pull her through.
My beautiful child.
Please find that strength.
Please recognize the beautiful person you are.
Please live.
I closed my embassy.
Before that,
I laid off the staff
With no writing warning,
Or excuses in advance.
I laid off the security guard too
It is a shaking time.
A lot of bloody feeling bombs,
Harassments,
And body language threats.
I tried a few diplomacy
To save this ancient
Mutual love
Interest
I tried really
To preserve
This bilateral
Romantic partnership
That flourished
Since the Babylonian era.
I want to Stop
Our lips shaking
With too much love
Etiquettes
I want to stop this
Cold and
High temperature
Collisions,
And earth quakes
Between the north and the south
You did not
Give me too many choices
Neither did I.
See, there is nothing between
Hell and Heaven.
I closed the embassy
I locked its oriental door
The only thing I took with me is
The last six years
Of our secret poems.
