what a gray, cold
wintry kind of day
the chill goes into your marrow
light drizzle
threatening to become
serious later on
me? I'm smiling
feeling all warm and toasty, y'all
because
as corny as the saying is
I have your love to keep me warm

  For blood and wine are red,
And blood and wine were on his hands

This is the kind of warm we all cherish, yes, dear Jerry!

Lovely thoughts.

Thank you, for with your words you reminded me of a saying in German I still keep in mind, as it was my Mom who said it to me:

Nichts kann brennen so heiss,
wie heimliche Liebe
von der niemand was weiss!

(Nothing burns with more heat
than a secret love
of which no one knows.)

Thank you, Margherita, your mother knew what she was speaking of.

Good morning, Lori, I'm still getting used to wearing it, it feels a bit uncomfortable at times.

Hah! That's what I'm trying to do, L. At my age overheating might prove fatal.
