The Blizzard

I went for a walk at midnight.
So that I could listen
to the trees sing in the wind.

I went for a walk at midnight.
So that I could hear
the snow flakes rattle against my coat.

I went for a walk at midnight.
To feel the cold bite into my legs
while the scent of snow delights my nose.

I went for a walk at midnight.
So that I could pretend that I am well.
At least until the edge of my garden.

  3. I have always loved walking in snowstorms. I still tend to go out in them if it is only to stand in the driveway.
