The tautness of The Flag Against the bitter wind
Gives comfort to some
The austerity of the pole
Its simplicity
Gives comfort to others
The blue sky behind
Some can see it
It’s always there
For others, it is endless
Blue, grey, white
Maybe red, white, blue
Difficult to comprehend
The Sun shines, but Today - it is not warm
Always there
Hopefully tomorrow it warms
