Cold in Montana
Born 1961, F, from Kalispell, MT, United StatesFirst the cold, followed by snow.
Then, the wind began to blow.
The crack was loud, I wanted to scream.
Would the roof fall in, from a broken beam?
The power went out, the lines came down.
One on fire, before it hit the ground.
The crews were busy, no one came.
Days went by, this is so lame.
Cutting branches, out of the mess.
I’m no expert, but did my best.
One live wire, off the ladder I flew.
The pain continues, what else is new?
Who knew the ground was so hard and cold.
I knew handling the storm, was getting old.
At least the power has come back on.
The heater is running, dusk to dawn.
Just another winter day in the state I love.
Another story to share with those I love.
