Down
Winter white, billowing down
Covers my body, and blankets
My restful mind.
Feelings of warmth and safety
Surround.
Frigid and blustering winds
Wanting to overtake.
Stripping me of my cover,
Turning my body and mind
Into a never land of frigid ice.
Buried under the cover
Billowing down surrounds
My naked body and mind
As the restlessness of the night
Reaches for me one more time.
