GO AWAY WINTER

Go Away winter
and leave me alone..
i’m tired of being
chilled to the bone.
i want to plant flowers
and sit in the sun
i want to go swimming
“winters no fun!”
i want to open up
windows and doors
i want to go barefoot
and do summer chores
i want to mow grass
and sit in the sun
i want of plant gardens
and have summer fun.
so go away winter
and just leave me be
Summer is where
i want now to be…

So sweet!

I like a white Christmas but there have been many a time I have felt like Cornnetta Jean.

Reminds me of one of my favorite poems by Robert Frost about the changing seasons:

Nature's first green is gold,
Her hardest hue to hold.
Her early leaf's a flower,
But only so an hour.
Then leaf subsides to leaf.
So Eden sank to grief,
So dawn goes down to day.
Nothing gold can stay.
