Thaw
sticks and stones can hurt as not hearing from you does tooTHAW Winter winds Freeze you in My mind Waiting for a thaw Day and Days go Watching the ice flows Down to the oceans go Build a fire Warm your heart Think of just only one On our banks With hope anew Above geese form As this old man Dreams on For a note Or a call Watching ice flow See two robins necking This old man smiles Hoping to hear Your thaw
