The slash cold ice hard wind across my cheek startled half shuttered eyes into a flapping blink as tears began to form on this January winter's morn Half lit the sky seemed telling of the day not yet awake and I shoved hands deeper into pockets fishing for keys Wonder suspended by lack of interest mechanics take over and gears turn on gears in spin of making do while denial plays along the slit of dawn as if to tease complacency into a game of dare But I continue on each gust to come another reason for sweaters that are at least an attempt to wrap against skin something warm |

and gears turn on gears in spin of making do while denial plays along the slit of dawn as if to tease complacency into a game of dare ~*~ But Sir...it's 34 degrees. Just a hair past freezing. Are you sure the gears even want to turn? |

25 this early morn... and wind from the north.. thickens the oil and makes them engage slowly.. and make a sluggish sound.. protesting the idea of movement of any kind. |

Ron...the wind is blowing warm here...the Santa Ana's! "while denial plays along the slit of dawn as if to tease complacency into a game of dare" always the fresh images in your writing, my friend. Can I offer you a warm hug? |

And we have a forcast for snow this weekend - horray, I get to play! I can hardly wait. This felt "chilly" that's for sure. You know if you feel that tingle that you are almost loosing your eyelid to frost, it is a wonderful feeling (if you are used to it) ![]() |

Sounds like it's warm here, compared to poor Laurens weather.... It did freeze the last two nights, though. Good writing, as always, Capt. Ron. ![]() |

It has been a very cold winter.. but oh how I love the crunch the snow makes under my boots, and the invigorating feeling once back inside. ~Warm hugs~ In the midst of winter.. |

A timely and well done poem, it certainly fits what is happening in north central Pa. wind is 25-40 today NNW, blowing the plowed off snow back onto the roads.. Enjoyed this poem, Cpat.....:-) ________ice ><> |
