'Tis The Season





Keep it bleak.

Feel the crisp and gloomy dawn

Linger just outside your thermal

Layers.

Blast it  with fingers of

Meandering breath condensed.

No show,

No tinselled, lighted

Spiced extravaganza.

Reach out

Past your homely, papered

Comfort zone of sloth.

  1. What a beautiful scene of physical apathy, perhaps emotional, too! Your poem is really nice and thought provoking...Love this post very much...

    1. There's a bit of apathy, but watching children being shot, people starving, bombs dropping on Syrians etc is making me rather contemplative and despising of shopping and ostentation,
