icy frigid winter
invades with frosty fingers
and clashes with this tropical day
heat all around me
breathing down my neck
yet a crystal arctic avalanche
is sliding ‘cross my tongue
shocking my languid frame
coursing through my veins
making me december’s queen
dethroning fair july

a child’s summer prayer…
dear lord
i’d just like to thank you for
this lovely summers day
and for the heavely wintery treat
you’ve bestowed upon me
but lord
i can’t move my hand
it seems to be stuck
upon this stick
with cherry stains
now if it ain’t asking too much
could you wash away my sins
before
my mom comes home
Not only do I like your website that I just happened to stumble across by searching for examples of worldpress websites, but I also enjoyed your poetry–made me chuckle.
Thanks 🙂 WordPress seriously rocks.

Hi Beth! Yes, it is fine with me. I sent you an email with more details. Thank you so much for choosing my poem.
