The wind, she howls
Cold air bites
The tips of fingers
Noses and ears
A clear sky
Is a fickle friend
Allowing warmth of sunshine
And bitter cold
Tiny hairs
Within my nose
Freeze with every breath
I am alive
Eyelashes, too
Frozen in time
From the tears
The wind has caused
The air, dry
Almost thirsty
Pulls moisture
From my skin
Frigid temps
Extreme conditions
Our world goes on
Unapologetically
