coming of the slow freeze
on awaiting seasonal depression’s arrival
the passing mornings are growing cold
and it’s getting hard to get up, truth be told
the big sad arrives sooner each year, worse tenfold
creeping, consuming, settling into corners and folds
the coldest blanket, a sinister critic too bold
i dread the slow freeze of despair so old
but i’ll enjoy the last of fading light until it too turns cold
