Winter Is Fading

Winter is fading Winter is fading Dark mornings are beginning To be bright Cold weather and brisk winds Helps us to endure An abundance of sunlight Smell the hint of spring in the air Longing for the hot summer flare We forget about the - 40 degrees below weather Icy roads, rough to the ride and the drive Many winters we have survived Many cold and frosty noses Summer brings the roses Winter is fading Sunshine in the sky Cold weather and brisk winds Keeps us on the sly Mintra J February 2018

You brought back cold memories of a winter I spent Upstate New York. A summer boy at heart, it was rough, but taught me what I really liked. I've lived in Phoenix for quite some time now:) Some call it hell on earth...but, as my wife and I often kid, if we don't make it to heaven at least the heat won't be a problem. Both retired now, the heat really pampers old bones. Great read. Thank you.
