Storm Clouds

Dark clouds are beginning to show on the Horizon,
it seems as though just yesterday we had
a storm that crippled us for three days and nights,

That was the storm of the decade, now here we are
Christmas week, with another looming storm
bearing down on us, giving us a dreadful fright,

Travel will be out of the question, the roads will,
prove treacherous, first freezing rain, then a temperature,
drop, ICE....

Then comes the snow, not measured by the inch, but
by the foot, it covers the ice, now come the accidents,
one after another, until they decide to close the roads,

School is already out for Holiday, thank God,
so at least that is one less worry,  shoveling...AARRGGHH,
not again, freezing cold, I need a snow blower, SANTA!

I guess we'll have to wait and see, it's still another day off,
wait for the anticipation of being stranded inside,
WAIT! might not be that bad, after all, because we all
know what happens, when you are stranded inside with,
The one you Love.........

Never go to bed angry at eachother, that should be your number 1 rule. if you can stay angry at eachother then you dont need to sleep. take the time and work it out. i love this and yes when your stranded with the one you love, magickal things happen indeed.
