"Freezing Time"


“Freezing Time”

12/12/15

Out of the night gasping
comes the ice and chills
trying to keep warmer
one blanket then more
as enfolded in block ice
still colder becoming
another blanket then two
finally warmth begins
at first a little then more
yet having to get up
getting cold all over
finally able to shed
all four blankets heavy
freezing time comes on
asking none for when
within the ice and chills
unable to get warmth!
