Winter Blues

oh, how i long for June or July

and summer sunshine

filling the sky

this season of cold 

continues it's hold

with harsh winds a'keepin'

the temps around freezin'

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 still sportin' mitties

and ear muffs indoors

wool sweaters and wristies

but yet i need more

each year winter’s gittin’

too hard to endure

i should just be sittin'

on some southern shore

instead i’ve got blankets 

piled high on my lap

i’m ready, in fact

for a 'spring-forward' nap……
