Winter’s Indecisiveness
Winter’s chill settles in
the clouds–hovers over my
city, unable to move forward.
I wake up to the cool air
trapped in my bedroom,
slide my body from the bed,
and close the windows.
42°, the Weather App reads.
I sigh and shuffle my
frozen, slippered-feet to the
kitchen for a cup of water.
The first few days of April
are always tricky here in
NC. We never know what
we’re going to get, and that
in itself, is a mystery to
digest.
If I had to Zodiac the weather,
I’d call it “Libra.”
Its intentions versus its
indecisiveness shines in
front of a shaky camera.
And we all benefit from it,
rather than shrivel up
within our skin like we
sometimes feel like
doing.
Winter, say “Hi” to spring
for me when you finally
set her free from the
hold you have on her.
“Zodiac the weather,
I’d call it “Libra.” That the poets’ mind right there. Superb. Made me smile. Xoxoxo

” Zodiac the weather” – so wonderfully said :))
And I loved the concluding lines – it is that time in between that feels like spring is stuck in the last legs of winter, perfectly said.
