One Deep Breath-Storm

snow

whirls

in dervishes

~

icy nettles

sting

my cheeks

~

angry wind

whips

my hair

~

fire

roars

in blazes

~

ahhh....

~

mother nature provided no inspiration on the subject of storms- it was a mild, sunny day graced with a cloudless blue sky~

but i've been caught out in a snowstorm or two, and i remember the frozen results only too well~

i also remember thawing in front of the fire, and how good it felt as the icy residue melted away, leaving me all mellow and warm, inside and out.
