Winter is long, 2015

 Sleet day pome                    (1/23/15)              

winter is a dark grey pome,

days you want to stay at home.

everyone has cough and sneeze,

chests are tight and make you wheeze.

days get longer? is that right?

still can't tell -- there is no light…

Pome attempt                      (1/27/15)

It's really not that I am bored,

just need a change of pace.

Too much fingers, feet ignored,

too much a big rat race.

Ironic is that sitting still

is what is bad for me.

The stationary tush, it will

get just as big as three!

So time to go outside and walk,

take in some good fresh air.

Or find someone to stand and talk,

and gossip some and swear.

Pomes is hard, computers glitch,

my fingers fumbled first.

This pome's okay, with just a hitch,

but it is not the worst.

*I’d almost decided to retire by now?
