The Lonely BlizzardA Poem by Michael KnightMy first ACTUAL poem
Frigid wilderness plagues my medium
being exhausted is a burden too heavy I wonder when will the storm end? It has been raging on for several days and several long some nights In the distance, is a tree, its roots are slowly rising up The wind acting as if the right hand of the storm I fight my way through the barely visible paths I feel almost lost, lost in the storm The storm punishes you with wet snow and heavy walks The wind likes to laugh at your face as you tremble It's a menacing laugh, one, I don't see the joke in And the storm, gray with melancholy, weeps and tears from the sky I have had enough of this drama My own friend in this battle is leaving, for he cannot even take the heat. Its getting colder, and I know I must pass on alone I can feel the warmth, she must be near I know I keep going, on my own, alone. I can be strong © 2012 Michael Knight |
