Warmth

When the day beckons
And the cold stifles
Fingers may feel
That the sun only trifles

So roar the oven
Poach the eggs
Sweater on
Rest the legs

Stimulate with music
Blanket the body
Unwind the terseness
Restoring the comoddy

Unleash acronyms and shortened
Phonetic financial jargon
Worrying not
About any of those world-bargains

Rhythm to the rhymes
Embrace the sublimes
Dance the toes
Defrost the nose

Resolve the redness
In frozen cheeks
To the recoloration
Of simmering leeks

Fingers in the wheat
A dream of summer heat
But not a forlorn form
Experiencing reheating warm
