28 December 2012
Wind and rain lash my window With a force so fierce it knows no reason Every lull a welcome rest Every gust giving it's best
Trees are bent and blown down low Springing up with a surging flow How glad I am to be in my bed Warm and cosy, no feelings of dread
I feel for those out in the storm, Battered, tattered, by the icy winds Rain seeping 'neath collars, held close and tight It's going to be a long dark and gloomy night
I know that soon, streets will empty for sure As the last of the brave Shutter their windows and fasten the door Light the fires and put on the lights Snuggle under duvets With a sigh and a smile, things suddenly brighter, going to be alright. ✨
