le givre

and when morning comes you’ll be more aware than before.

spreading itself over the land

as a miniscule sort of nano-sheet of ice,

nature’s cold wet cough spatters itself

all over what one sees when the rub the sleepy stuff

from the eyes---

that first look outside on an early september morn

reveals that summer is finally on its way out &

the colder times are upon us---

those who love the autumn days

those who love the winter nights

those who are ready to bulk up & drink warm cider,

hot chocolate &

spent hours by the fireplace

or outside enjoying the change that has come,

relish in the beauty of that first frost---

walk outside & breathe in the sheer beauty

of a crisp frozen air

slowly killing off everything in its path

and gearing up for the months of

dormancy

which nature allows

in order to bring the romantic spring & orgasm ridden

summer---

enjoying it all is part of the job called

human.
