Lots Of Cold

Lots Of Cold

 

A bit of sunshine, lots of cold

Lots of jackets, lots of coats

A gust of wind, a weather vane

An umbrella too, a little rain

A norther front, still more ice

Cars colliding, sleds that glide

Walkways shoveled, icicles hanging

Wood stoves going, rooftops straining

Skies all cleared and stars there brighter

Forecasts predicting snowbanks higher

Businesses closing, schools letting out

Cars with chains and trucks with plows

Evergreens green and other trees white

Clouds clearing and full moon nights

Frozen ponds and ducks about

Kids skating and parents’ shouts

Time indoors and board games played

Hot chocolate sipped and coloring all day

Cabin fever and restlessness

Jumping jacks while playing chess
