Ice,
Cold,

The Lurking Threat

Cold & Cruel, devoid,
An inhuman presence lurks,
Void of empathy,
Wanting to remove your joy,
So, beware and hide away.

Cold Weather

How do you feel about cold weather?

The cold weather and I have a love-hate relationship. I’m drawn to the serene beauty it brings, especially when it blankets the landscape with snow. Engaging in winter activities like building snowmen and having snowball fights fills me with joy. However, the bitter coldness is something I could do without! Despite this, I’m grateful to live in California where the frigid temperatures are rare. If I ever long for a winter wonderland, a quick trip to the mountains can easily remedy that.
