Just a mist, Barely wetting things, Too warm for a December, Feels slightly like spring, Just a mist. Black piles of snow remember It was a few days ago When the sky was filled with snow, With cold shivers of winter, I felt like going shopping, Driving in it mall hopping, Then it fell like December. Drenching rains Melt the last of snows Pooling in the clogged gutters, Nowhere left to go, Drenching rains. The walkways become rivers, Floods fly from cars in passing Push pools to waves of splashing Snow chilled is the street water, Wet shivers from the drenching, In muted tones of cursing Onward still goes the walker. The cars go Wipers slapping time To songs of late December, Light thoughts on the mind The cars go. Gloom |

This is cool stuff Prof. That hint of winter that drops ...and leaves you looking for the signs of the season. Kind of teased there for day or so huh? You captured the decaf drifts of West Texas also. Nice work~ ~Salty In the Midst of movement and chaos, keep stillness inside of you. |

Gloom - I like this!! But, I don't like the December rains if and when we get them. Everything looks so dirty and sad. What an enjoyable poem this was to read. Chris ![]() "Hope" is the thing with feathers- |

Prof. I missed this one before, but glad I caught this time around. I love the descriptive way you wrote this. Even though the sun's shining here in Florida, it seemed I could almost hear the rain....... ![]() "Love makes the world go around" |
