December


December always finds me cold
Like virgin snow on a dying rose
the chill of twilights sleek approach
The dying light of nights encroach
It’s ever dark for everlong
The bath of sun is ever wan
The pools of shadows swim and burn
As silent sleep reclaims its turn.
December always finds me cold
Like the ache of bones in the ancient old
The slate of sky holds no glint of hope.
We huddle deep and simply cope.

this is a great poem, but i cant help but think that there was no heat in the house or something. there have been times i couldnt afford to pay high bills in the winter so we had to sleep in one bed with a single small heater at the foot of the bed. this is what this poem reminds me of. good work.

Poetry is when an emotion has found its thought and the thought has found words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
