Winter Wind Quotes

“Dangerous as a winter wind, which freezes the marrow from within, and not like a blade, which slashes the throat from without”
― S. Jae-Jones

“Strong north winds are here
Big leaves blowing everywhere
Gutters full and plugged”
― Richard L. Ratliff

“In Icy Commentary by Stewart Stafford

A wailing winter wind does blow;
From séance tap to besieged sloe,
All caressed by freezing touch,
Shivering sabre shakes as such.

Assailant storms of a frigid week,
Turned-up collar thaws a cheek,
Vacate streets to fireside glow,
A jilted bride in confetti snow.

Shark gusts with teeth like knives,
Draughty house of nagging wives,
Spinning tales from an elegiac tome,
Cosy dreams in the womb of home.
