A Posy of Poems
by Angela Lansbury
January - 2015
This year I see the winter pass
Just like the ones before
Dark outside, mould on shut curtains
Draughts, cake crumbs on the floor
Once again chilly January
So we are stuck indoors
With clutter left from Christmas time
Gifts - don’t send or spend more
Though we didn’t get white Christmas
We enjoyed Christmas lights
Our streets festooned, spruce trees with stars …
Still alive, eat and fight
Relieved, we think the risk has gone
So back to work we go
But trains and cars are deluged by -
Too late for Christmas - snow.
-ends-
