Four Seasons In A Day.

Goldfinch60



I walk onto the lawn in glorious sunshine,

There is warmth in the air.

I strike my first ball and it ends in a good place,

I hit it for a second time

Through the hoop it goes.

The sun continues to shine,

Off goes my coat in this warmth about me,

I play this game with pleasure.

 

The dark clouds start to gather,

It gets much colder,

On goes my coat.

The rain starts to fall

But still I play this game,

The rain turns to hail

And still I play.

The clouds pass by

The sun shines once more,

It gets warm once more,

So off comes the coat.

 

Here we are playing our game

No matter what the weather does,

It is a typical day of English weather,

Four seasons in one day!

      Should I join a local (ish) Croquet Club?
      They may say: 'Yes, as long as you don't sing!' lol

      • Goldfinch60

        I am sure you would enjoy it Orchi.

        That's why us brits love the weather, gives us something to talk about.

          Your just spoilt you are! Now you get as much weather as anyone could ask for too!

          Keep smiling, whatever pills you're taking - they're working.

          • Goldfinch60

            So true d a, my life is full of enjoyment in so many different ways.

            I can relate to the changing of seasons in one day, with michigan weather being so unpredictable as well, we go through snow and spring and fall but never warm enough for summer......we'll get there. Very nice write, Andy!

            • Goldfinch60

              Thank you Christina, the weather is so unpredictable in many ways but would we not want it this way?

              Sounds like Canada. We have a saying here. “If you don’t like the weather,..wait 15 minutes 😂😂😂🥂🕊🌞🤪⛈⛅️🌈🌤💨🌬⛅️🌤🌈☀️🌨❄️☃️⛅️🌤☀️🌈🤪😂😂😂

              • Crowns4Christ

                The saying here in Oregon,is"you just missed summer, it was yesterday"

                • Goldfinch60

                  I can imagine that being true WJG.

                  As we say here in New England, "If you don't like the weather, wait a minute till it changes" Great write Andy. 👍

                  • Goldfinch60

                    Thanks AP, We never know what is going on with the weather.

                    Sounds like the weather here in Oregon, USA
                    It was hot yesterday, supposed to snow tomorrow, weather is crazy nowadays

                    • Goldfinch60

                      It certainly is crazy Melissa, we only know what is happening with the weather when we look out of the window. 😎

                      • Crowns4Christ

                        Exactly, it's totally unpredictable
