So, ALT, here is my Health & Weather...I'll pass this along to the other "D".
How linked my cough
to the bitter wind
At least the germs disappate
more quickly or perhaps
more quickly spread
How linked my mood
to the lack of sun
Though this gray be not sad
introspective perhaps or maybe
anticipation awaiting
How linked the room of my intersanctum
to the crisp air
One had hoped perhaps
but layers, layers
prolong the excitement of skin

Nice! I may have to steal that for my LS poem.
Like this poem a lot, jsd: great repetitions and wonderful "conceits." John Donne and the other metaphysicals.
thank you both :-)
