Writing Wednesday: A Wall of Separation

Dark is the outside night
While cozy in a blanket tight

With some cocoa from the cook
I'm armed with chair, lamp and book

The fire is pumping friendly heat
While I read of people I couldn't meet

A winter storm whirls beyond the door
"Have some soup, there's plenty more!"

We feel safe inside our homes
From the outside cold which roams

But a few moments of Mother Nature's grit
And the boundary could be quickly split

Perhaps, (indeed, for sure) we should remember
Those without homes this raw December.
