Snow bound
Watching grey skies dropping the flakes
when jumbled nerves suffice
accumulation sustained without
the ice that takes time to melt
memories of better times produce
the streaks of hope
softened and enveloped
the whiteness and mood will cope
another day builds my life
the chance for better times again
stranded and locked indoors
within my humble den
