Needing a Thaw
Old Man Winter is wearing out his welcome,
if you really want to know
with frigid days and howling nights,
and degrees way too low!
Enough is enough is what I say
I'm about at the end of my rope!
This winter stuff is for the birds,
(and those who slide the slope!).
Squeaking snow really grates on my nerves
the cold air stuck in my craw;
Here's my greatest desire at the moment--
a warm February thaw!
Old man winter is dumping his load and
really mucking about!
My toes are cold, covered with layers,
and that's inside the house!
Winter winter go away--
and come again next year.
That's what I hope and wish and pray--
that a thaw is almost here!
