Cold, like the rain on a winter’s day
Callously sticking to my skin,
Old, like blackened snow, I stay
Draped in clothing, wearing thin

Shattering, chattering, subzero illusions
Numbing my senses, in vain
Chattering, shattering, icicle profusions
Looking for warmth, to guide me again

Stabbing through me, sharp and jagged
The pain just won’t go away
Leaving me breathless, hopelessly ragged
I fall to my knees, and I pray

 

The colder weather is approaching,  Reach out and spread the warmth in your heart to those less fortunate.

“Atlas of Clouds is the second chapbook authored by the internationally acclaimed poet Paul F. Lenzi. In departure from his many full-length collections, this noteworthy volume provides readers with easy opportunity to appreciate the talented voice of this remarkable writer.

These verses give currency to some of the complexities of our human experience. They are at once provocative, poignant, stylish and readily accessible. They are also quite memorable. Rich with artful syntax, this chapbook demonstrates why Paul F. Lenzi is among the best of our contemporary American poets.”

If you would like inscribed and/or autographed copies of any of my…
