Bear the Frost

The absent heat of November
stops you from reaching the train on time,
pinning you to the mattress, posturing
the abandonment of a new lower
while longing for the elegance
of the butterfly and its pins.

Morning passes, hours protecting yourself
from frost. There is no comfort here:
no cups of tea or warm smiles,
expansive conversation filled with fluff,
no glittering artwork to widen the pupils,
only the preservation of a passing comfort.

We must bear the season’s bite on our cheek
and charge stomach first into the world
to prove we are hungry for the day,
eat our fill from the orchard fruits,
then in evenings, rest well by the fireside,
knowing our labours at least shook the soil.
