On Its Way

Posted September 8th, 2008 by David Gibbs

The cold morning air,
That bites the back of your throat,
Makes you realise,
That winter is on its way,
And summer is months away.

It sure is...

On it's way! I do kind of like it though. The breath of cool air ..it seems to clean everything out and lets us start fresh, all over again.
Very nice write David Gibbs. Your tankas are always clever!

Don't I know it, getting up

Don't I know it, getting up at 5:00am is a killer at any time, but doing it in the dark mornings when there's no light is impossible...a fantastic tanka, here's me wishing for a white winter and not a wet one! ♥

Thanks Jewel

Know what you mean about the early starts, I occasionally have to be up at 5am, it's no fun! And how come the bed is always much cosier and warmer this time of year?! I don't mind a white winter, just hope the snow's heavy enough to stop me going to work! Lol.
Thanks for the read and comment,
Dave

You're welcome

I know, your alarm goes off, yet you'd give your right arm just to huddle back under the covers with your hot water bottle...ahh, bliss! Yeah, 2 foot of snow=no work, no school, just fun! ♥
