Surviving winter...a poem

SURVIVING WINTER Any fool might pass a summer's day For the sun is for all It takes no hero To lay in the long grass And lose an idle hour In a dream But the dark days of winter Must also be lived When, cold set Loneliness, tight fitted Wears close to the skin And in the silent hours Tears run free and fall And the earth made damp Awaits the warmth of spring Thank you Horace
