On the menu

Winter your menu 
Is short and limited
Frosty crispy mornings
With diamond seeded dew 
Over gardens
Or wet foggy ones
Erasing all but intimate surroundings
Followed by a short succession
Of ackward hours with thin light
And no warmth whatsoever 
Leaving one's heart 
An empty severe chamber 
Void of any echo of your voice
Wandering in the mindless vacuum 
Of ever grinding labyrinthine tasks 
You've done your work
It's time to go!
