Winter Wonderland

Fingers numb
Feet cold as ice
Frostbite envelopes me
Yet I swing away

Stopping for a moment I ponder
Shorten my breath, open my eyes to
Blinding truth, but I must go on
Whacking away like a raged savage
Whacking away like there in no tomorrow

The tree falls with dignity
Though this can’t be the end
My hatchet bleeds of remorse
But I must go on

For my family,
For my kids
For my pride
For my dignity
So I walk to the next tree
And I swing away
