Shivers by C. Nichols Thursday, December 21, 2006 Rated "G" by the Author. Share Print Save Become a Fan

In the silent covers of night Under those crisp cold sheets I lay awake, eyes open The ceiling seems so close The world seems so far away My room is cold again Winter comes too quickly So I dream of cocoa & cookies Of sparkling multicolored lights Rosy cheeks & children smiling So that when I think of the chill Of those months stretching Impossibly from the last flower Wilting into nothingness Until the first spring bloom That it will not seem all chill That I may forget the clean Barren sparseness of white sheets And the thick white quilt that somehow Cannot keep out the lonliness � 2006 C.Blount �
