It was bitterly cold and made me shiver,
the prospect of enduring more made me quiver.
I buttoned up and ventured forward,
I braced myself and continued toward.
Going quickly was not the answer,
I had to slow down and embrace the cold.
A measured response of absorbing the chill,
makes it possible to inhale Her will.
Regardless of temp, I talk the talk,
in withering weather, I walk the walk.

'In this world, Elwood, you must be' - she always called
me Elwood - 'In this world, Elwood, you must be oh so
smart or oh so pleasant.' Well, for years I was smart.
I recommend pleasant. You may quote me."
Well, for years I was smart, oh so very smart, I too recommend pleasant - Trust the harmony
