“Winter Ease” by David Harris
My mind is at ease
On this brisk winter night,
Sitting at my desk,
With my lamp glowing bright.
As of now nothing matters-
Not those quizzes online,
Those asinine assignments,
Or newspaper deadlines.
I write in my journal
About today and yesterday,
Then of three days prior.
I’ve missed several days
Of writing about my college life.
I try to write each day
But with homework and social media
The memoirs get delayed.
It’s good to have this peace
On a cancelled school day
Yet like the snow outside
My ease will melt away.
