POETRY: BITS

Birth, play, learn, work, sleep
Life cycle of human kind
Then what dreams may come

*

Bare feet in the snow
Shock and chill are numbed by time
Skin sloughs like a glove

*

A catch in my throat
I cough and hack yet it stays
Reminds that I live

*     *     *

   No rhyme or reason to today's haiku, they don't really go together, but they do seem to fit, if that makes any sense. And as a note of advice, if you're ever going barefoot in the winter, make sure you don't get frostbite.
