Hello JLR, this is very well written and I love the repeated line 'socks on toes'. A lot of good advice in perfect aabb rhyme. Good final stanza - sounds very cozy and inviting. Well done - regards Dorothy x

Comment from Sanku
This is a beautiful form .I have always admired Gungaloo .I was a fan of her short lined poems.
This poem achieves the effect of severe winter with the use of winter images and repeated'socks on toes'.Thanks for sharing.

Comment from diamondbogle
I grew up in the country in a nowhere place called Kansas so this is exactly how we felt when it started getting cold there. We put our socks on, got out the fire poker and hoped the pipes didn't freeze. It really brought me back to fond memories while also be lighthearted and charming. Overall well written.

Comment from Cindy Warren
That's the forecast here. They're telling us to expect -20 with snow by the weekend. My plan is to spend it snuggled in front of the fire with the cats, definitely with socks on toes.

Comment from Ben Colder
Interesting concept of poetry. I see nothing wrong with this write. It makes me turn up the heat in 60 degree weather. LOL. Thanks for sharing your talent.

Comment from Susan Larson
I definitely relate to this poem. It describes my childhood so well. The socks on toes were a necessity, even when we went to bed. Very nice rhyming scheme.

Comment from Rosemary Everson1
Such a cute poem. I like the last line, 'socks on toes'. When it's cold outside, we are always warmer if our feet/toes are covered. So we do need socks on our feet/toes!

Comment from Louise Michelle
What a nice, feel good poem. I enjoyed the rhythm and your well chosen rhymes. Living in the south, we don't have much winter. The last stanza was a hoot - I loved house/spouse/mouse and grouse. Hugs, Lou

Comment from Gail Denham
Good job with this new form - all of it makes sense of things to do when cold weather hits. We've had lots of cold, but no snow yet - it's coming I'm sure. Good poem.
