Winter cold is in the air outside Enter in if you’re very cold Center yourself around the fire Splinter off by yourself if you’re bold. Plop yourself down in a chair Drop everything you’re about to do Flop your body around in the warmth Stop the chill from harming you. A Lento poem. Lento poetry is two quatrains with a rhyme scheme tense on the first word of AAAA BBBB and a last word rhyme scheme of abcb bdcd. |
