It Was An Icy Winter Afternoon (Roundelay) Poem by Gert Strydom

It Was An Icy Winter Afternoon (Roundelay)



It was an icy winter afternoon
when I heard a bird crooning a cheery tune
and suddenly although feeling quite old
its song came as barrier against the cold.

I saw branches of naked stripped trees
like skeletons rocking in the strong breeze
while quite happily that bird sang quite bold,
its song came as barrier against the cold.
