now there i was minding my own business in the warm weather
and i left the window open all night
and it was cold the whole time…
Cold
so we had our first cooler night around here
and you know what that means
time to be my best north person type person…
I don’t want to worry anyone,
but it’s still cold outside…
I wish I might,
find something small,
shining bright…
A blanket or a sweater,
a place beside the fire,
warm and safe…
If we are the plants,
with our tiny little leaves…
The worst of it all,
is that ice deep in your bones…
I don’t need the ice,
cold added after the fact…
Yeah it’s cold,
first thing in the morning,
and you don’t want to get up,
But we both know…
It’s the crack of dawn,
But it’s time to work, I think…
