Got Those Old Winter Blahs

Those winter blahs, they're with us again They can drag us down without doubt It makes us feel like cursing bloody murder Can't take it, I just want to shout After all these years I still can't stand winter Indoors for at least six months As the years fly by, it gets harder to endure As a kid I enjoyed winter once Not a complainer, enjoy life to the fullest But I wish they could cancel winter Might even try coercing those weather gods As I let out an audible whimper I'll continue to try to lead an exemplary life If winter could just be canceled Never to complain about the wind and the rain As long as our winter is annulled This obviously sounds a bit selfish of me There's many enjoying the cold Skiing and tobogganing and having a great time I'm not cut from that outdoorsy mould © Jack Ellison 2015

It's a mild and beautiful winter here so far. But it's back to cold temperatures this week. Oh well! I'll just cuddle up in a blankie in front of my window as I write. A fractured Goldilocks and bears would be nice. But am trying to work out a few crazy twists and turns. Got my very own computer chair on a super dooper sale this week! So I'm ready and raring to go! Tell Lady Cathie I have some cute stickers to dress up her rolling pin, for when needed, for you're almost as naughty as Dragon.

Hey Jack, this is a great expression of how this powerful season can make you feel - just because I was born in the North doesn't mean I like the cold. I love this poem and thank you for sharing it. Well done. Be Blessed, Neva
