Caught She often throws a net of snow With winds that beat and rip and blow That jaws me with a grip of cold Each gnaw a burn of raw enfold A cat of nine tales strikes its sting That tares my skin so blood will wring And rivulets of pain extend To eat into each fibers bend Then cleans me with a sponge and bath With tears of brine devoid of wrath The touch so tender and genteel It soothes away the hurt with heal That scars that would an endless stay Just clear and seem to fade away And I am lost to clemency Just floating in its ecstasy But being made of flesh and blood How long can live a plants re-bud? |

That snow is an ice castle today, Sy... we had freezing rain last night, and if the sun were out, we'd have diamond-studded bushes and trees... as it is, we have gray skies and slippery roads... |

A cat of nine tales strikes its sting That tares my skin so blood will wring And rivulets of pain extend To eats into each fibers bend =============================== me thinks you need some *winkie TLC* and hot raspberry tea. |
