Winter Blues

oh, how i long for June or July

and summer sunshine

filling the sky

this season of cold 

has taken it’s hold

with harsh winds awailin’

and snow flakes asailin’

this winter’s so long

it’s long in the tooth

let’s give it a shove

let’s give it the boot!

i’m sportin’ my mitties

and ear muffs indoors

wool sweaters and wristies

but still i need more

each year winter’s gittin’

too hard to endure

i should be just sittin'

on some southern shore

instead i’ve got blankets 

piled high on my lap

i’m ready, in fact

for a mid-winter’s nap……
