let us linger here
where hearts are
warm and all those
looking for peace
and healing remember
the magic of this
season of joy

Magnetic Poetry Monday
Warming
“Sarah, we need to talk.”
“I know,” Sarah lamented, “I know what you’re going to say.”
“We just can’t afford to keep the shop open any longer. With the winters warming, no one is buying wool hats.”
“I know. You’re right. We can’t afford this storefront any longer, but maybe we could try eCommerce. I hear that some of the Nordic regions still have a season of frosting.”
“We could try that. I’ll set up the website and settle our lease with the landlord to the end of the month.”
“Thanks Josh. I miss winter.”
“Me too, Sarah. Me too.”

it’s a masquerade
their vile deluge of pretense,
their temerity
is but a drizzling ruse
a tempest, shrouded in guile
raining down on us,
deliquescent victims, we
are dying of thirst
