POLAR VORTEX

By Charles Robert Lindholm

A Polar Vortex,
A Killer Cold
Invades Us
From The North

Haiku – Flames

First flames of fireplace,

Warm flickering, dancing, glowing,

Prelude to winter.

Old flesh,
Now hydrocarbon vapor
Ignites,
Warming my home,
Host

The cold
Lays on my bones
Pressing my flesh
In,
A fire crackles,
Lifting frigid fingers
One at a time
