in these troubled times
an accidental interlude with you
my sweet serendipity
in these troubled times
an accidental interlude with you
my sweet serendipity
all around me
misery suffering chaos
yearning for joy and relief
cold winds blowing
I sit huddled in my quilt
waiting for summer
warm sun cold winds
the winter bids us goodbye
with a promise to return
stay with me
for today is the winter solstice
and the day is too short
i silently relish
the quiet of the night alone
with my thoughts
yearning for the warmth
of a few loving words
I endure winter
smile and laugh
let the crease lines form
don’t hold back life
winter breeze
making me numb and cold
I thank God for the warm bed
hope comes knocking
when you are your own rainbow
a bright future ahead
