Winter In Oklahoma

Winter is  here  there  can  be  no  doubt:
You  feel  it  most  when  you  must  go  out :
When  water  turns  into  ice  from  the  cold:
To  wonder  out  takes  a  spirit  so  bold:
So  nice  and  warm  here  inside :
Bundle  your self  before  going  outside:
Leaves  are  crunching  under  my  feet:
So  thankful  were  not  having  sleet:
Leaves  have  fallen  every  where:
The  cold  wind  is  felt in  the  frosty  air:
Here inside  looking  out visions  a wonder  to  see:
However  going out  is  a  fright for  me:
You  can feel  the  chill  into  your  toes:
Bundle  up  that  frost  bite  nowe:

Hi Peggy, a warm welcome to Poetry Soup and you have started with a beautiful little verse, like Lewis we are experiencing 35 to 40c, I have also experienced cold like that when I visited UK in 1962 and I hated every minute of it, thank you for sharing and take care.....Vera
