the cold



each year winter crawls into my heart and digs her claws in
planting seeds of restlessness, melancholy and doubt
i'm cranky and sleepy and emotional
every year it happens
and every year i'm surprised by it
surprised by how the change of season brings on a change in me
a week or so before 'the great snow storm of 2014' we had a 50 (almost 60) degree day
henry and i took a bike ride to the park and relished our time in the sunshine
breathing in the crisp air as the sun warmed our limbs
he ran around and around and around yelling 'look how fast i go momma!'
and just like that.....
winter lost her grip on my heart
