Imagine On a Winter's Day

I bet no-one has tried doing this, but they go snow boarding and skiing in the same weather :)

Imagine swinging in a hammock on a winter's day
If you're bundled up enough, it may be ok?
If you're in the arms of another, maybe even great!
If you haven't tried...well, it's not too late
Swinging above the land all covered white
Under the pines, swaying on like a kite
Swinging peacefully together, hand in hand
Hey, even if you fall out, a soft place to land! :)
So, who says hammocks are only for summer?
There's skiing and snowboarding?  No hammock? A bummer!

Great idea and poem, Heidi. If you invented one that could be turned so it wouldn't fill with snow during a storm, I'll bet they would be used more during the winter. Warm wishes~ Warren

Hi, Warren. Yes, that's an idea. I have one in the summer that I take in and out. It is a cloth one to hang on hooks. So, I don't leave it out in the rain. So, either a designed one that stays outside, or bringing it in and out like summer. Or hey, maybe some kind of heated one for winter would be nice LOL Thank you for your comment :)

You are right. Why not? Reminds me of that old Bing Crosby classic: "Would you like to swing on a star? // Carry moonbeams home in a jar?" So if one can swing on a star, why not on a hammock! :) gw

I had never thought of that before but is does sound like fun, as long as you don't fall asleep and wake up two feet under. : )
