Warm and Content

2002 Poetry

I can feel the snow in the air

As I curl up in my big easy chair

Putting some wood on the fire

Thinking of things that I require



I'm a man with simple wants

Don't need to go on a lot of jaunts

Just happy to be safe, snug, and warm

Away from that cold winter storm



Listening to music soft and low

Hearing outside the cold winds blow

Sipping a beverage that's nice and hot

Making me glad about the things I've got



Life, love, family, and friends

Nothing which I need to make amends

I am content being old and fat

extremely happy where my life is at

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I'm not really crazy about the winter but, I am old and fat.
