I’m not a fan of winter chill
A runny nose or feeling ill
Fact is I’d like to outlaw snow
In any place I choose to go.
But I don’t wish to be extreme
Or shatter others and their dream
Though I don’t ski, I know it’s fun
I have seen hundreds on a run.
Perhaps I’ll winter in the house
Snuggled up like a hearthside mouse
I pray that I’ll keep warm till spring
When sunshine smiles on everything !
