The Twilight Zone
Winter days when light is grey
Snow clouds hide the sun away
Windows shuttered from the cold
Doors shut tight the heat to hold
Muted colours in my room
Help to add to all the gloom
Perhaps a jumper warm and red
Will make me warm within my head
The amber glow within the hearth
Brings little light for what it’s worth
A candle burning in the corner
Makes me feel a little warmer
Winter day drifts into winter night
Still with the feeling of twilight
Was there ever any light today?
Why didn’t the sun come out to play?
