Winter Glow

I have a poetry page on my .mac website, but I don’t think many people read it. I think more people read this blog, so I’m going to post my three poems from that page here, and maybe continue writing poetry for this blog. :) Here’s the first, I think I wrote it winter of 2003:

Winter Glow

The cool dark winter air

clean, crisp, cold.

Breathing in while they walk

crunch, crunch, crunch.

Their boots are soaked on to the bone.

Their hands are cold as ice.

Their faces are pink with cold,

Their coats are frosted over.

With at least fifty pounds of presents

the two crunch on through the snow.

They turn the corner and see their house

alight with winter glow.
