Snow, let it snow

                                

                                                                          Chicago

Pearls of Ice,

Riding on arrows of wind,

Slicing through the fragile

Fabric of days and nights.

Stirring the crunchy creamy snow:

Clear the driveway

Or

Call for a cab ?

Harsh decisions, harsh reality,

Harsh winter.

This is a re-post from 2015. The high lighted words are from Wednesday Words, a writing challenge for bloggers to experiment in genre. Delores created this entertaining writing for bloggers to create. Delores stepped down from this, handing the baton over to other blogging friends to continue. New words can be found at Elephant's Child during the week.

 

For my sister, Mary.

She survives each winter with a little grace and some wine. Her quilts are phenomenal.
