When the Temperature Falls (Original)
Temperatures fall like disguises
Or reservations in lust,
Chilling to the bone
And welcomed.
The air has grown pallid like our words:
Bleach bare bones of sounds,
Echoes and whistles
That abound.
In the silent winter this noise
Is just enough to blanket me
So from the heart up
I can still feel warmth.
I've seen that in my coldest days
I can color the air with heat,
With a cloud of breath
And a slight shiver.
Temperatures fall like my defense
So that I can't recall my gripes,
And the chilly wind
Shares the air with hope.

Ah.... looks a lot like Wisconsin in the gifs!
My new phone is making pics too big for steemimg somehow so I went with gifs. It's so nice here, if a little warmer than I expected :)
Hmmm... weird about that phone, but yeah, you missed some pretty rough stuff, hopefully the weather holds up for you!
Your poetry with those gifs make me feel nostalgic, great work!
Thanks so much :)
