Loneliness On The Day Of Love

The snow fell with silence
The clots of flakes feathered the sidewalks
Snow shovels scrapped on the concrete
I threw out no salt___

Drifts collected by the bottom of brownstones
No one came to shovel away the floes
That was an old man's job
Mine___

Snow loves the cold
I have good gear against winter
I wish I had a warm body waiting for me
Sadly my wife awaits around the world__

Thailand
Sriracha
Hot
No snow. but the shops in Sri Racha sell snow beer
The bottles covered with frost
Even at dawn___

It's Valentine Day 2021.
I stayed home without a love in sight.
A lone man content to hold hands with a glass of wine, but
I will be complete Planes will fly again
Soon I will be with my families
One day even stranded sailors will find a ship home
It is our calling___
