Awaken

September 30, 2022

A peaceful evergreen

adorned in glitter,

Overlooks the sky as the air grows bitter.

The cherry brick fireplace

Holds lumber which kindles,

Unleashing smoke where the starry night dwindles.


A warm cozy quilt

leaves me feeling no guilt,

For this feeling I hold

Only awakens when it is cold.


A decadent mug

placed in my hand,

invites my tasteful senses to expand.

Luscious hot chocolate

greets my lips,

as the sizzling steam ascends in wisps.


A sweet cinnamon scent

fills the air,

Oh how nothing can quite compare.  

For these feelings I hold

Only awaken when it is cold.
