fragile thoughts soon forgotten

walking home

cold night
butter knife
slicing ice cream
is the wind in my jacket
slippery streets
slapping sliding under the
moon
wistfully wishing it were
springtime
warm lamp-glow
shadowed head in the
window
where you're
reading resting
wondering at my absence
soft snowflakes
melting on my nose
my cheeks are pink, aglow
coming home
