Strange Hurt She Knew

In times of stormy weather

She felt queer pain

That said,

“You’ll find rain better

Than shelter from the rain.”

Days filled with fiery sunshine

Strange hurt she knew

That made

Her seek the burning sunlight

Rather than the shade.

In months of snowy winter

When cozy houses hold,

She’d break

Down doors to wander

Naked through the cold.
