Whining While Dining On Cheese


Everyone who knows me-  knows I whine,
          About the weather winter, spring, summer and fall;
And at my frequent wine and cheese where we dine,
    On my sofa, us girls chat and drink and eat and sprawl.

In winter, I like to complain about the cold,
          While sipping red wine and eating aged cheddar;
I am dreaming and wishing for that sun of gold, 
        All the time wrapped in a thick wool cozy sweater.

In spring, I like to tell everyone about rain,
             That darn constant rain that falls all the time;
I sip bianca, munch havarti, oh such a pain,
     And my friends nod, nod but they never ever chime.

In summer, I like to tell all how hot it is,
         The forever heat and that unbearable blazing sun;
Oh, pass the brie and lets raise the fizz,
           My favorite place, the pool floating for all day fun.

In fall, I let people know that I am sad,
     I gulp a glass of grape vino and bite some blue cheese;
Soon cold will come back and it will be bad,
          I know, listen to me girls-   it will be a deep freeze.

      Now, pass the bottle never mind the glass, PLEASE.

Great piece and perfectly on point. I chuckled each time I read it all the while (in my best southern voice) saying "mmhmm girl I know that's right".
