Weather Empathy
It's warm enough here
For short trousers
And a tee shirt
Driving the car with the roof down
Eating ice cream (don't tell the wife)
Long walks in the evening
A swim in the sea
Working in the garden
Sittingin the sun
Drinking wine
It's hard to imagine
Somewhere else
It's 10 below zero
Centegrade or Farenheit
And covered in snow
Wind chill factors
Prohibit swimming
For all those without fur
Driving is difficult
With the roof on
Sitting by a warm fire
Drinking whiskey
