Big Wind

Big wind beats night window
Eleventh storey vantage
Winter’s Song is warning
Stay in, stay warm
My Man.
But to be so coddled
Next day without
Brisk walking
Strips the system’ s powers
And robs the thrilling plan.
Out to see adventure
Well wrapped and
Sharing workday
Folks at wheel
Or loading dock
Counters stocked with goods.
Take the chill
Quite thankful
And see the Race
In action.
Schoolyards and
Town Square
And vibrant neighbourhoods.
