Is it cold where you are today (poem for c/c)?

“Cold Outside”

streaks of phosphorescent dawn

skim the snow like darting swallows

oblique bands of January sunlight

dance with youthful grace of motion

clear air bites like hungry wolves

where wind and wilderness meet

like the two halves of a muffin

baby it’s cold outside

    I love Dean Martin - he is one of my favorites. I live in Florida so it doesn't get as cold very often - but lately when it has been in the 20's I have been doing a fair imitation of singing "baby it's cold outside".

    Sometimes the cold and these images you have given us seem sacred to me. Cold and we feel our vulnerability but we have the smugness our warm homes can give.

    I miss it....every once in a while.

    Yesterday and today have been in the 70's here - and that is when I do not miss the cold. hehe.

    I admire the sibilance.

    Ooh, i actually like it. I tremendously cherished only like the action picture understanding, and of the snow as satin sheets. there is something extremely calm with regard to the imagery, even with the unhappy undertones. As greater of a prose author, I envy people who can come out with genuine-sounding poetry. XD solid interest (: x
