this grip of cold
icy winds from the north
freezing all they touch
a time to recollect
the warmth of you in my life
the coldest month
each day a variation
on the theme of winter
I sense nuances of change
both in mind and body
frigid morning
my breath leaving traces...
vanishing
like memories of loved one
is the soul just a vapor?

Brrr….
Had a hard freeze here a few days ago, and now it's like spring, a little too warm - rather typical. Thanks for putting down "on paper" that where you live "each day [is] a variation on the theme of winter," to help me imagine what "real" winter is like. ;-)
We had our real winter about a month ago, but lately it's been too warm up here, as well. 55 degrees today! All the snow is melted and if this keeps up I wouldn't be surprised to see buds on the forsythia.
