Short Heaters Poems

You've swallowed our Summer pride
turning the sky line
thick porridge blanket 
The Gas heaters switched on
You swore away the Sun
and emptied our pockets...

Pussy cats are the most adorable creatures
Next to young fillies with their sexual features
Love 'em both
I do quoth
Both can be thought of as little heaters...

Season's a changing Winter's a coming
Noses are sniffling Heaters arriving
People feeling cold and clammy
Donning thick new jammies
Oh no more natural warmth for a term
Just woolly coats and the flu germ!!...

Feeders

Drinkers

Perches

Beds and nests

Crates

Lighting system

Waste disposal system

Incubator

Heaters and brooders

Egg trays

Cages and coops

Constant chat

We were burning
When they were busy laughing, mocking!

Mobiles took from us face talk,
heaters took from us the feeling of fire to the skin,
tabs took from us the love for the rivers and streams,
keyboards took from us the feeling of a pen in hand,
theory took from us praticality
and freedom took from us the embrace of having....

time is eternal
does not pass does not end
dead of winter days
closed in by bitter cold
iced in
we run the extra heaters
babies dressed in sweaters
chapped red cheeks from snow play
sit in stunned tiredness
we wait for dinner
we all sleep and wake well after
dark
blinking...

Like heaters with thousands of watts
Hot passion burns hearts into knots
Instead of this norm
To find love that’s warm
Form relations with chocolàtes

A honeyed and candied sweet taste
Entwined under lingerie laced
As valentine treat
Is the finest eat
Lucky tongues have ever embraced

October skies are painted pink.
Flowers form next year's seedpod.
Migrating geese stop for a drink.
Autumn leaves blanket earth's facade.

Cold nights grow long while cool days shrink.
Heaters turn on; lovers live warm.
There's time to rest, cuddle and think.
Celebrating nature's transform....

This morning clouds filled the sky
Fighting back the patience of the sun
Just waiting, perchance with desire 
In hopes that the wind would confuse the mist
And like me, waiting for you
An opportunity might arise 
Offering a chance to shine
And feel your tenderness
Surround me
Making shadows useless
And electric heaters passé...

When winter comes ,demand for warmth is more due to falling
Ice which makes the  environment cozy and white .
Not only water surfaces are frozen ;birds and others migrating,
Temperature keeps falling as chimneys and heaters reduce this plight,
Extreme one leads to snow traps ,though snow play is fun.
Rate of taking alcohol is high, and thick clothing are worn....

In a land that boasts
You can be warm as toast,
Because the sun shines here,
Every day of the year.

Today the opposite is true,
My fingers are turning blue.
The heaters on high while I watch TV,
Bed is inviting it seems to me.

Sitting here wrapped up tight,
In a sleeping bag, what a sight!
Hot water bottle ready and hot tea too,
I'm off to bed before I get Flu!

NO ONE WANTS TO LIVE IN A COLD HOME
from the album "Heaters for Sale"
by Not Paul McCarney 

No one wants to live in a cold home, cold home
Uncle Albert says you should go home, go home
Turn the heat up or sit by the fire
Toasty as upon a funeral pyre
Oo-hoo, because
No one wants to live in a cold home, cold home
No one takes the longest road home, road home
Put your feet up next to the blaze
Toes become candles before your gaze
Ooo-hooo!...

The mistral cold wind blew incessantly wild,
Winding in the streets, its glacial currents in and around
The apartment blocks where all frosted windows
Were tightly secure.  Still the bleak wintry chill entered
From tiny ruptured chinks and spread inside
Annihilating the miserly heat emitted 
By old cranky air conditioners and gas heaters.
Occasional bursts of strong wind blew
Some soft snow up like winnowed chaff.
One hopes the homeless found some place to rest....
