Stuffed into too much clothing
Keeping the wind chill at bay
On such a day, like today...
Our smiles, flash frozen, to our faces
Determined to dig out
To search for the start of summer
And the beachfront buddies
That we have become.
Two pints of ale,
At the corner pub...
Hoisted in toast to friendship
That's held strong, by frostbiten fingers
While we daydream of ferries,
Crossing the bay
Now covered in icy oblivion
And only the seagulls have courage enough
To sit sunbathing on the pier....
Thanks for a taste of hot coffee kindness
By showing up, travelling unshovelled roads
Just to be sure I was safe...
And my dog could be walked....
Without risk of my slipping
I'll keep the forever photo,
Of us...kinda like two kinda kids
Who got the day off together,
Laughed at lopsided snowmen,
And promised we'd be happier
When the sweet sun sets
At a much later hour...
As we gain our real estate
On the sandy south shore
Melting away...
Like those lopsided snowmen
A delightful journey in a reminiscence of friendship... I love the feeling this work of your pen gives me.
