the last storm of winter
roars by
a bellicose scream
freezes our blood one last time

I love your Poem! The winds this year have been brutal! I'll take a lamb like snow with fifty-cent piece sized flakes that come straight down and melt on the concrete and stick to everything else.

Yeah, you're right, Lori. Though we don't have the winters you have, even so this was, and still is, a cold, cold winter. Thank you.
