Winter Blues

winter is upon us, and its that time of year
winter gets you down, as darkness closes near. 
bringing in the cold, dark and the blues,
ice on all  the roads, and slippery on your shoes, 

fuel bills up through the roof,
 and money very tight, 
temperature,s dropping
making day turn to night, 


where is all the sunshine gone as all we get is rain, 
brining in the coldness that makes your body in pain, 
cold on your fingers, and on your ears to, 
the long night of winter, sure does bring the blues, 

i  remember the coal  fire, 
the sparkled in the dark, 
now we got gas heating,
 thats took away the spark,

watching all the snow falling,
that makes things look so bright, 
all the snow is really  doing  
is covering up the ice, 


standing alone and look to the stars,
wondering how long 
this winter will last, 
maybe a week or a month or two, 
wish winter would go as makes me blue, 

roll on the sunshine 
as gives us heat, 
instead of me being here, 
with very cold feet, 

got myself a red nose 
as temperature,s drop so quick,
this cold air going in my lungs 
makes me feel so sick, 

waking in the morning, 
wondering if its day or night, 
want to stay in bed, till a see some light, 

the winter brings the blues, 
as this we do all know,
wish winter would go away 
so i can feel my toes, 

looking at the robins 
that are  sing in the tree,
this brings a little smile,
till the coldness hits me, 

making me start to shiver
and feeling very down 
my nose is o so red,
 i  look like a clown .


only a few more weeks to go, 
or so the weather man said, 
i can not wait till winter goes, 
till then i will stay in bed,,,,
