winter's gray cold skies go about
reaping the rays of heat, from the old sun,
stripping the life from warmth.
covering the land with silver sod,
barley a shadow to sprout ,
not a pear of light to be found
under winters crown.

Never mind cabin fever. I don't get that now down here where I live, but when I lived in New York (Flushing & Long Island) there were days I couldn't even get to work and work was only about six blocks away.

This poem was right on . . .

It is the monochrome of silver gray
which casts a fog upon my day
and shivers me from crown to sole.

Though sun I seek, adore, cajole,
'tis still old Jack whose pattern sprays
and feathers me frozen in icy bouquets.

Love your wintry blast!

Enjoyed the scenery here. Snow is full of light and sparkles even in the dark. I like "winter's crown".
