Shivering
Dawn breaks to tremors, short breaths of fall's chill
Struggling to unhinge the Sun, fruitless effort indeed
Every covering known is impotent, a lost battle
Facing the bitter air is a vexatious task.
The sky is promising, golden radiance blazing
Alas, nothing expected is given to the heart
Struggling atop icy toes, rubbing chilled arms
Nothing attempted will cease the shivering.
It starts high in the stomach, spreading like plague
Cold food is unhelpful, the boiled beverage lacks comfort
Slowly immersing, a freezing cocoon engulfs
Soul is longing for the end where dreams began.
