Shelter Me

Shelter me from harsh winter days
I’m feeling blue with not much to say
a polar vortex coming from the north
sub zero temps offer no warmth

chug chug chug goes the old furnace
environmental issues should concern us
burning through oil and thin wallets
car batteries die costing more dollars

shelter me from harsh winter days
the north wind blows having its way
dappled sunlight a precious gift
into a surreal day dream I drift

chug chug chug goes the old furnace
can light guide us in our life purpose
finding joy and personal fulfillment
creating poetry brings enrichment

shelter me from harsh winter days
chase these melancholy blues away
awaiting springs bountiful arrival
nature will bring songs of revival

author's note:  It has been brutally cold here
and my car battery died.


I am worried about the goose and the ducks
tucked away in their cove.  How will they
survive.  sigh..
