Freya Is Her Name

Glorious sunny days of late such warmth and so inviting buds burst into flower every minute of every hour say goodbye to winter gloom cold and dismal winter days for spring is here the sun is out and I am off to catch some rays But oh that wind is getting stronger blowing from the West experts forecast snow and rain so put away my summer dress for it is only early March seduced by February’s warmth spring really has not sprung at all where did I put my cashmere shawl So warn those budding shrubs and trees the wind and snow is on the way and tell the buds they should stay put too early for their spring display such cold and windy weather today for those who live within the UK Storm Freya is the culprit for Freya is her name and any damage she may cause Freya must take the blame Written 2nd March 2019 Our unseasonably warm weather comes to an end with the threat of Storm Freya – she is certainly no friend!

Love, in the moment poetry such as this, Ann! -6 below zero here in Minneapolis Minnesota, unseasonably cold, expecting warmer temps in June!

Looks like March is here with weather to bite us in the behind:-( blowing a hoolie here and the boats look like they won't sail tomorrow and Monday. Back to winter woolies I'm afraid, wrap up warm and stay safe Ann:-) hugs Jan xx
