Another cold Friday

Like an ocean
The forest
Sing outside
Cold winds
Make many more
Than little birds
Hide
How long should we
Pause to see
Winter’s other side

Like the deep see
The colour of the sky
Grey like the middle of my head
Banishing the sun
Unimagined
Winter procrastinates
Summer
Why do you
Make us wait
