A Winter's Day



I awoke to see the sun

In my robe, outside did run.

The day was so bright

It hurt my eyes,

Reflecting off snow so white,

It was a pleasant surprise.

I started to shiver

my bare feet grew numb,

I was in such a dither

to act so dumb.

I hurried back into the house

and brewed a pot of coffee,

Its warming nectar, the cold it doused.

making me warm right down to my feet.

Looking out at the sun,

Thoughts turned to a ski run.

Rising I started to dress

Parka, boots, and all the rest,

and as I started for the door,

I heard my lover snore.

So out of my clothes

and back to a warm bed,

I think I will stay here,

in my lover's arms instead.

Ok birdies don't bother to sing,

Here with my love, do not hurry spring.
