Breathing Winter

—for Fred Hopson

A breath in winter;
this life so gentle drifts
like steam rising from the mouth,
All of us so fragile;
each breath we rattle,
visible for an instant
then lost to the night.

Voices breathe out to me,
words warm as fire,
“Come in from the cold
before you catch your death.”

And though the party is inviting,
and the company, divine;
I prefer to dwell upon the threshold
where I can see my breath.
