burning cold

Their warm soft touch comforts you like your favourite blanket
yet their really cold frozen scars burnt into one’s body
Winter
Their cold water refreshes us from the parchedness
Yet hot deep cuts poisons one’s body
Summer
Much loved and treasured
One of our icons
Yet why are they still blistering and numb
One of our big mistakes
Fluffy grey and white bodies
Burn cold in the eye of the
Fire.
