I always keep up
my indoor white lights
until there is enough light outside
to make them no longer
so desperately essential.
Put up for the holidays,
they help me make it
through the bleakest tail-end
of Winter,
and when I do finally
bid them farewell,
and give them my thanks,
I know Springtime,
for me,
has finally come.


Not long now!

  2. I can relate. I hold onto whatever gets me through the bitter end of winter, and I hold on for dear life.
