Gloom
Where I am at right now it is raining and the sky is thick with clouds. Write about that kind of weather, or write about the weather outside your window.
Still Cold in April
Wiping snow off the car windshield
In mid April
Deleting phone numbers from
Last December
When cold as wire cutters
I cut off ties
I’m tired of this winter
And the bitter wind
With it’s frigid white claws
Dragging me back
Into that black hole of hibernation
Within my ugly white apartment
Where once an invalid lived
And died somewhere along the way
His ghost refuses to vacate
Phantom limbs crossed stubbornly
Like a storm cloud heavy with snow
While summer hovers like a halo
Just above the mountains
Sunlight peeks through the windows
Tapping gently with a warm smile
Bringing me flowers
And flowing gently through my hair
