The Daily Haiku – Anserine 1, Inhospitable

#TheDailyHaiku

winter has entered
my ice heart and settled there,
inhospitable.

inhospitable,
my fire cannot melt the ice;
I shiver with cold.

I shiver with cold,
my old bones clothed with numbness,
grey colours the edge

grey colours the edge,
but soon the darkling sky broods,
inhospitable.

inhospitable
I pray for sleep to arrive,
winter has entered.
