Winter, Oh Winter

Revised 02/13/24, 6:04 (HST)

Snowman is not a hero;

He is just on call from December’til December.

But the snows keep filing up in several feet—never

Say never.

The brave dares a number of times in the shower,

Would it make a difference? I wonder.

While the weak catches flu, needing a steamer,

“Rip off,” says the old lady to the heater.

Jackets and sweaters are life savers,

Add bonnets and gloves to make it warmer.

The thin and thinner

Are your greatest nayers.

Winter, Oh Winter

Not to be mean, but you shouldn’t stay much longer.

Should be at most,

begone when fireworks are over.
