At The First Drop Of

Image by Yi Ching Lin


at the first drop of

at the first drop of
the coming blizzard, we
dug deeply into our
comforters, took
cover, drew
warmth from
long, expectant
breaths –

before the first drop
reached us, they
dug deeply into their
battle boots, stepped
out, drew
determination from
the grey,
weighty sky
.
