In response to one-word prompt : Gingerly
Gingerly I was walking to school that day,
Not knowing who I would meet will say.
How long have you been in this snowy town?
I looked up and saw a woman with a frown.
Cautiously I replied with a hesitant smile,
‘My dear believe it or not it’s been a while,
But I cannot get used to the icy roads of winter,
Each day I count how long will this weather,
Give me grief, I’m sorry for complaining,
This is truly something I wasn’t expecting.’
She gave me a sarcastic look and moved on,
I watchfully took small steps to my destination!
