Although most of the country is enduring a heat wave at present, my muse opted for cooler temperatures. It’s my birthday today, and this is my present to share!

A wonderful present! I feel the chill and see the pleasing contrast of red feathers huddled in the evergreen branches with cotton coats of snow, bodies in their fetal snug hibernation, both warm and familiar as home. Enticing as rare and softly placed this poem goes from harsh to the letter of sweetness so astonishingly quick and rare as to almost compare it to an Oliver ..though I wouldn't dare. This is pure "Kelly" and deserves such a distinction,...I wonder if we're feeling a brutal winter perhaps headed our way? So sorry to have missed your birthday dear friend, Happy Belated!

I've always had a penchant for winter, and that little bird in the avatar brought it all into focus for me. And the added thrill of discovering a new word...was priceless! Your presence is always the gift that keeps on giving, my friend. Always! x
Kelly - it's been a while since I've been here. You made me glad to have come back. Despite the winter's cold you make it seem so comfy to snuggle under the goose down quilt.
Take care - Dave

Kelly, "My Kelly!" How few your words warms my thoughts and makes me jealous for a fleece comforter to share; "winter's bone," nay!

Lol, thank you, Nev! Best wishes to you and little Wren!
Sends a shiver through my bones. A goose down comforter and a warm companion would definitely be welcome.
Nice one Kelly ... and Happy Birthday ... although a day late or so.
