A little poem to take the chill off? You never know what could happen when everyone is gone. Once again, a masterful piece from your pen. Short lines, abrupt endings and a message woven so expertly through that even the warmest day would bring a few shivers to the reader.

As always masterfully written. Hidden messages within and adeptly left with a question of what was the poem written. Oh it is inferred indeed but if it is one of yours I would love to hear it.

Old flames, we tell ourselves we know better. Then that ember is sparked with a smile.
The heart says maybe- yes- this time-- as the ego yells - no, don't do it!

I told him not to do that. Them bam right in the kisser.
At first it was cold, an iceberg of a woman, the cold shoulder routine... but then she melts like a glacier... and perhaps becomes warm and cuddly... "nature's fire"....or she rejects you after a while and therefore the love span is short.... but when you are gone "she might read it (your poem)"...is she playing games with you? or is she for real; hard to tell....
