January

Joie de vivre is our motto for wintry months
Antifreeze of every kind the order of the day
Nippy temperatures won't deter our party mood
Undeniably upbeat's the only way to be
Adventurous the frisky attitude to brandish
Rapid firing of playful snowballs all thrown in fun
Yesteryear steps aside makes room for a fab new year
