Winter Reflection
By Olusegun Arowolo
This night of snow falls
will cause few snowballs
the hour to burn coal is here
room becomes chilly
which makes me silly
yet happy, I'm not out there.
love to sleep tonight
I've to face this plight
though I want warmth but not cold
in her hands I fall
which makes me look small
this passion needs to be told.
*****
I ride out the cold
enjoying the hold
jack frost on the window pane
snuggling all night long
his voice a soft song
indoors like a ball and chain.
embracing the need
with passion indeed
tolerance of snow tonight
surfing winter's frost,
I found myself lost
in front of the fireplace light.
