Mr. Frost
“Mr. Frost” he said
“Is your name Robert or Jack?”
And with beautiful words
I was cold in my attack:
Surely you know
I’m the word-smith gifted
Words come in a blizzard
As flour when it’s sifted
I tend to rhythm and rhyme
And write of times in winter
I give of myself
In the nights of December
If I were an owl
I would be a snowy
With a great turn of my head
And words good and flowing
Exactly who I am
Is open to debate
I write when I can
On cold December days

A fine write w c. Why is Mr Frost always named Jack? lol.
Thanks, orchidee. I'm not sure as to why he is Jack Frost?? lol
Very good write wc, I enjoy those frosty days, I also enjoy the other Frost:
"I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference."
Thanks, Goldfinch. I'm glad you enjoyed the poem. It's always nice to know a fan of frost.
