CHAFING SIGHS
with the coastal rage
& the plateau drops in decay
who bothers my chafing sighs
naked I weather the winter

I like "I weather the winter."
I have known these mornings, and then the rage subsides.
Excellent write.

Thanks Bill and Anna for taking note of this one. The poem was composed years ago in Dec 1980. With minor editing I published it now on my blog!
