Winter Weary

Relentless and endless rain pours down From the Heavens, dark and grey. Sad and alone, I sit by the phone Restlessly longing for sunny day. Relentless and endless, dreary rain Covering the country side. I sit by the phone, sad and alone Hating the rain I cannot abide. Relentless and endless, so it seems, The January days go by. Sad and alone, I sit by the phone And shiver with winds that won't die. Relentless and endless, no respite, Each day boring as the last. I sit by the phone, sad and alone Until cold winter days have all passed. January 2, 2013

what a great way to show us winter weary with this terrific rhyme, my friend. Don't despair. Spring is right around the corner. Look how fast thanksgiving and Xmas passed us by.
