WINTER FROST

Ice fills my heavy heart.

Closing in on all sides.

Soon it will be frozen.

Entombed in winter frost.

Trees droop heavy with snow.

Branches hang low with icicles.

My heart sinks heavy with ice.

Frozen until spring melts the frost.

A HOUSE OF CARDS

A house of ice.

So very nice.

But it’s still unstable.

Like a shaky table.

Once the sun shows its hot face.

The house is a melted place.

Such can be a  house built on lies.

Useful as a horse catching flies. 

Once the lies are unsealed.

House of cards is revealed.

A house’s foundation must ring true.

It must be built to be strong & true.

A HOUSE OF ICE

A house of ice,
built from solid blocks of ice
is unstable.
It is only temporary.
Once the sun comes out,
the bricks melt,
the house falls.
Like a house of lies.
Once the lies are uncovered,
the house collapses on itself.
A house’s foundation
must be built to be strong & true.

WELCOME BACK SNOW

Look at that water move!

GOODBYE OLD MAN WINTER

GOODBYE WINTER

 

I want all the snow and ice to melt.

I want it to be warm outside.

I want to smell the flowers.

I want to see the grass.

I want to see roses budding.

Too bad we can’t always get what we want.
