Tundra Blue

I'm sno very unhappy. I miss my good friend. I miss his icy embrace and the shivers he gives me. I want him so badly I can almost taste him. It has been months since his last fleeting visit.

He is the ultimate sensual tease. I see him everywhere and nowhere. Lurking in the shadows but not giving me enough of what I yearn for. I need him to cover my body with stinging kisses to leave me aglow. "Come, please come", my begging goes unanswered. I desire to roll in his essence and jump for joy in his presence. Instead I sink to my knees on the dirty hard ground to sob in despair. "Gimme some", I plead to the nothingness, face turned up pleading to the stradisphere. "Please.."

I lay in bed at night in anticipation of his arrival. I hear his howl far away in the distance. Will tomorrow be my special day When he finally arrives? With mittens and boots ready I wait.


I grew up in the land of ice and snow and I miss it. I need my snow fix bad. I love to shovel it and refuse to use the snow blower to clear my driveway. It gives me a sence of unequivocal achievement to clear a path using my hands. I fall into bed sore and tired but happy. I shovel the neighbors driveway, and I don't even like them, so they will get their mail when it snows. There is no better toy than snow. My hubby is building a project in upper Michigan and it snows there almost continuously. He taunts me with this information. Current estimated depth, eight feet. Lucky devil.

As I sit at my desk, looking out over the neighborhood, quiet under the merest dusting of snow, the waxing moon chills the scene. You are right, it is just a tease, this snow is ephemeral, worthless. Cold without snow will break your heart. Merry Christmas, Lab Munkay, thank you for all you have shared with "us" this year. You have touched many lives in a very meaningful way. Your devoted reader...Stephen

Stupid snow. You can have it.

It traps me in the house with the kids. And they scare me. ;)
