D’Verse Poets Pub – Quadrille #24 -whisper
De of WhimsyGizmo has challenged us to ‘whisper’ out a Quadrille this week
~
Winter’s Grip
it came in wisp(er)-like
sat in the corner
leaned back, crossed
it’s legs, as if to stay awhile
I covered it with a knitted
afghan but it crept out
from under, crawled
along the floor
gripped my ankles
until Spring knocked on
the door
I can really relate to this…the gradual creep/grip of winter.

I liked these lines about winter: “I covered it with a knitted
afghan but it crept out”

I love this personification of Winter as both wisp and whisper. 🙂
