Weather Ready
Weather comes, but not to everyone.
Strange or strong, or just the sun,
Wet, dry or, "Just no fun!"
Are you ready for the weather
With a heart light as a feather?
Do you care or do you bother?
Someone freezes to death and starves.
Another just sits, whistles and carves,
Patiently waiting and nothing mars.
Is it possible to get away?
Usually, it's a price too high to pay
Put it on another day?
Totally unprepared for cold
Or are you fully clad and bold?
"We just love Winter!" I am told.
Unbelievable differences around the globe
Winter preparedness or frozen earlobes,
Or, "No fear, Life goes on like Job's!"
There's challenges and weather comes.
Decide, take an attitude, make some puns,
Laugh, change and help give out buns.
Yes, volunteer and be a part.
Give from your smile and your heart.
Use Winter's benefit, a brand-new start.
Do your best to prepare.
Don't be blue nor despair.
Go to God in prayer.
Hear a Spirit-filled wise word,
Trust and never be lured
To give up or be deterred.
