Nothing there

Empty

There it was

Then silence

But there it was again

At least we thought

A gentle sound

A visitor from outside

Maybe wishing to come in

Should we allow entry?

We do not know if enemy or for

Or maybe someone we know

One of us will go

To the entry to greet

All the while wondering who we will meet

Wondering why any would be visiting during this sleet

Opening the door

We are then left in awe

Freezing to the core

Noting nothing to even the score

We were not even met with a stare

Standing there with a glare

Such freezing air

Looking but nothing there
