 “WINTERTIME”


 


Wintertime winds, they come ahowlin’


Like a werewolf on a full moon,


Snow leaves teeth marks on exposed


skin,


No place to run, no place to hide,


Only a feeling of impending doom.


 


Oh my, fear for your life,


With winters storm approach,


Protect your children & your wife,


From the coming frozen strife.


If you love them, don’t ignore,


The chance that wintertime is a


whore.


      


A whore of death from frozen digits,


And don’t forget to protect your own 


small midget,


As that can play an important role,


Someday in someone’s hole.     


 


We should all be wary,


For arrived, has winters whore,


Seeking as may deaths as she can


score,


Before warmth & sun from summer


returns.


 


To end with all due haste,


  Winters frozen grasp…

Fantastic approach, Ed. Wintertime is really a beautiful, yet dangerous, season--as is the heat of the summer. Snow yields inner peace, so serene, so calm--yet lurking. b
