Pre-Dawn Walk, Winter Edition
It's more than just a punch.
I'm hit by a powerful blow
as I turn north
into the bitter wind.
It slams me back,
rakes my face,
tears away breath,
tears up my eyes.
Seventy steps,
head bent,
then I turn west
and am sheltered.

Yes, I can see and feel the punch that winter wind brings, Mary Lee.
