Written for Cinquain Poetry Prompt #26.
Our inspiration word is “chill”.
This is my mirror cinquain.
Cold chill
bites at my nose.
Windows frosted with ice
while I sip cocoa by the fire’s
warm glow.
Miss Kitt,
curled up on the rug by my feet,
purring contentedly.
Cozy inside,
we two.

The upside of chilly outside is the excuse we need to remain inside by the fire. This is lovely, Nancy. And The Doors playing in the background is lovely

Thanks, Dale! I am not a winter chick at all. The après-ski chalet was created for people like me and I’m totally digging that cozy scene I created!

It’s cool, isn’t it? I was wondering who would be the first to comment on the song. You win!
Thanks, Jim.
