Thursday

In the green darkness of early morning
I woke in the silence of snowfall.
Restless in my flannel nest, I could only
lie, eyes full of dark soft
snow, landing on my heavy chest.
And so I waited,
pillowed and weighted-
wishing and wishing for you.

waited + weighted = super clever, the internal restless/flannel nest rhyme is amazing, and then, to top it off, the overall sentiment is perfect.
