The Challenge of the Coming Cold
I look forward to the coming cold weather,
the challenge of surviving it with little heat –
intentionally.
Comforters and Sherpa blankets, layers
of warm clothing.
Fire proof space heaters only when
absolutely necessary.
Windows weatherized, door draft stoppers
ready for use.
An indomitable will to withstand the cold,
the challenge, the triumphant victory over it.
