Gently falling.

Challenge: Weekly prompts weekend challenge
Topic: Chill

So we had a ‘lot’ of snow for here on Wednesday, and by Thursday it had all moved North. So while it was nice and sunny here on Friday, though still with a chill wind, I could not travel from South to North Wales for a meeting. [edit – and as I write this it has started snowing again].

Up to the Ridgeway
Brynna

I have gently fallen this time
A slow motion of descent
Just a slowing of the tempo
Seemed to mark each new event

I may have gently fallen this time
But blanketed and nursed
The flaking was less noticeable
As each pain under surface lurked

But having gently fallen this time
Only bruised and slope less steep
I see footsteps stretch before me
Out of darkness hope yet creeps
