More Than Weather, Can Be Frightful Or Unseasonal Christmas

Used to be the weather was frightful People covered themselves from head to toe Now, despite the fact it’s Christmas season I see more sand, than I see snow The temperatures keep on elevating To the moon, they just seem to rise Oh, where is the Christmas of yesterday The rosy cheeks, windows fogged with ice It’s just too warm now for Christmas Too hot to shop, too hot to run around Santa’s working at the pole in a speedo That’s nothing, we wanna see come to town Frosty, it seems we’re not gonna see him Heat miser, now, has gotten his day Can’t ole Jack Frost do something about this And chase the warm weather away No need to chop wood set for burning The heated air replaces that in the hearth I hope it gets cold and very soon, too Because Christmas puts warmth in everyone’s heart It’s just too warm now for Christmas Too hot to shop, too hot to run around Santa’s working at the pole in a speedo That’s nothing, we wanna see come to town Oh, when Christmas day finally gets here Right now, I’ll tell ya, all I wanna see Are people with scarves and gloves on their hands And snow bringing life to all barren trees I want the temps to chill me right to the bone That’s when I’ll know it’s Christmas time Who wants to look up and see a sleigh With a fat man in a speedo, flying around It’s just too warm now for Christmas Too hot to shop, too hot to run around Santa’s working at the pole in a speedo That’s nothing, we wanna see come to town

Oh I will take a few Christmas's with Santa in a speedo. The chill of winter does nothing for me as I get older. It is that time of year again and we are lucky our weather has been nice and mild so far. GREAT poem. love phyl

I put up our lights the day after Thanksgiving and it was 60 degrees. Way too warm for NW Ohio.
