Rattling teeth and wobbling feetÂ
Stuttering and stammering to greet
Icy winds piercing through my skin pores
Making my bones chill to the core
Ugh!! This Winter mornings are frightful
Getting out of bed is very painfulÂ
But life must flow on like a river
WITH Just coffee or tea, our best refreshers
To kick-start the sleeping bonesÂ
With a warm concoction to honeÂ
Some mobility to be up and aboutÂ
With the mundane chores to toutÂ
No choice but to haul myself up from the bed
Teetering, I opened the frigid door, red
At last with some suppleness at bestÂ
My enthusiasm wears some zing and zest
Certainly, it’s a lovely morning out thereÂ
Waiting for nature to open up and bareÂ
A mystical feel, that runs downÂ
the spineÂ
Hazy and foggy silhouettes pristineÂ
Misty surroundings wearing a magical blanketÂ
The flora and fauna as nature’s vignettesÂ
In the biting cold environs, life goes on
Without a whimper or whine headlongÂ
Time ticks away, seasons come and goÂ
Making their presence felt in a row
Nature has no grand finale fine
The play goes on, come rain or sunshine …
