The Piece of Bread

On a chilly winter night, a warm piece of bread can mean so much. It's just enough to lift you up and warm the spirits. But people's feelings vary more than one would expect.

On a still winter night
warm bread sits
one might try with all their might
until one loses their wits
but they could not find so perfect a sight
on such a cold winter's night

One woman will just stare
breathing in the steamy air
trying to freeze it into her memory

One man will think only of
stealing a slice

But a little boy
that was nice
will sneak up at night
just to set things right
and share some with the little mouse
