January

She stamps her feet and whistles loud.
She will not be ignored.
Starting her reign, mighty and proud.
By most of us, not adored,
Though by her theatrics, we will not be bored.

Your personification of January reads like the blind date from hell. I'll let some other guy take her out. Good writing as usual, Francine.

Awesome personification of January! Nette will love this write! Yes January wants everyone to hear her call, to know she's there, and to boast of her importance! You did great! Outstanding Work!!
