Hold my stem, lest I spill sherry
Pour unto me the flavor of you;
My cold feet go into spree
Is unsteady, yet free to go.
blanket like clouds rolls westward
naughty woolen socks on floor
midnight eyelids make a grab
now thief has cold feet

cold feet long for spring. . .
ice cycles fall stabbing snow
where asters will bloom
For Carol Brown's haiku contest "Waiting for Spring"
When you are out in the frosty air
Its easy to have an affair
The people you meet
All generate heat
And cold feet just love warm flesh bare!
she cannot smile
her cold feet are bare
who will cry for this child

Waiting, waiting, waiting
Cold feet
CUT
bleeding
Red blood seep
Curdles in heat
Strung out
I long
the sun, the sun
Calming
To warm my anaphylactic tongue
Form:
cold hands and cold feet
disperse as our lips connect
outside world shut out
we don’t require an island
to create our reverie

A frigid morning snowstorm
embraces its many guests,
a white veil at this wedding,
reluctant bridegroom.

For "Winter Dodoitsu" contest sponsored by Heather Ober.
To love, to hope and to care -
I want to steal away all these rares,
Profiting them mine
For only me.
A needy child hungering warmth
Is stuck with cold and tiny feet.

arrested proceedings; timid groom pulls plug on wedding last minute.

cold feet
seek heat
they meet
hot seat
no treat
they tweet
these feet
mincemeat
we're beat
they bleat
complete
defeat
drumbeat
downbeat
Here i satnd outside your door with heart in hand ,
wedding ring and band ,hoping that you'll understand ,
that this lust once love is lost in thought again,
Can you comprehend that you are just a woman and I a mere man?
Form:
flying fluttery
bird nestled on the phone line
rests in the cold feet
~
clench on power line
bird nestled on the phone line
winter's frozen birds

I stood naked on the edge,
(Cold feet gripping the stony crag),
Peering into the shadowy depths of the abyss ...
With a distant glint of black flame,
It looked back ...
And smiled.
In this ??cold weather?,
Don't give me the ??cold shoulder?
because you have ?#cold feet? about us.
We were skating on thin ??ice? with our first date.
But how else could we have tested the? waters??
I mean, that's why people break the ice in the first place..
waiting while
awaiting a date
predating a memory
that has never happened
plagued
by bouts of
rain every day
we set to meet
surely
surely a sign
a sign from god
meetings not meant
to meet
but anon
foregone
too long
later
the rain
now sweat
and cold feet

"Who are you to enter my room?", her aunt's screams terrified the 10 years old's cold feet.
She ran away from there while her aunt's question reverberated in her tender mind.
Years later the question got its answer when the girl's name was printed on the cover page of a book.
Crackling cold, satchel in tow.
Back for the role of baby for home.
For mama and daddy,
I’m proper lil Natty.
Back for the holds, cuddled for soul.

I took a long nap
Made me wake in November
Starring for awhile
At us and little April
These seasons moves
From warm to extreme cold,
My wish is to see uganda
But these cold feet
Each of these words
Will travel to you becky
Upon the gray reindeer
To make your days perky.
The morning sun falls
Noises awake, passing crowds
once quiet again
Stand on the cold feet
Dew still not fade by the lights
Sipping my hot tea
Rectangle door closed
The framework offers the view
My sight clustered straight
Enjoyed the greenish
While the sun turns into gloom
It's ready to rain
ice-shrouded tree limbs
tilt perilously groundward
sparrows have cold feet

March nights, cold and bitter,
Awaiting spring
Just teasingly out of sight.
Cold feet pressed up against
The warm calves
Of a muttering bedmate.
"Are you keeping those
In the freezer?"
His almost nightly refrain.
I’m afraid my feet are now cold
On an idea I was once sold
To be wife for life to smile and cry
With days and nights bound by ring of gold
I don’t want to be a sex slave
Little more than a breeder and maid
To lose my father’s name for a harder husband’s gain
My independence will surely fade to gray
Form:
Heavy Heart slow to beat,
As the whispers come hastily,
all but halting cold feet
Only lifetime's distraught, wretched spell shall she speak,
steadfast cries in the moonlight,
Wolves howl in late heat
Still standing alone,
not one tear shall break under
this sweet child's face,
smiling throu cold encumber
Form:
shivering …
I stood naked on the edge -
cold feet gripping the
stony crag like a vagabond vulture,
peering into the shadowy
depths of the abyss ...
and with a distant glint of black flame,
the savage shadows looked back ...
and smiled.
