A Cold Weather Poem

Tonight my breath
Sings icy, silent rhapsodies
To the stars:
Who glow, doleful and blue,
before the moon's magnificent, beaming face


I drink in the night air
which flows down my throat
in frosty rivulets,
shivering my heart and
numbing my lungs and
making my fingers burn like candles
