I am like Jude, only a WOMAN for all seasons, lol. I love winter and at the start of this poem i felt myself snuggling in! It will warm up before we know it and we will be blessed with a spring. This is very well-written, Jeanette. I could see it in a poetry book.

i guess i'm a man for all seasons ... i like the chilly winter as well as the heat of summer ... as far as this poem goes, i find it captures the unusual cold down there in the Da's ...

Never thought I'd say this until yesterday, when MaryGrace Patterson (who lives in Punta Gorda) wrote a poem about Florida cold. I told her to stay warm. LOL Now I'm telling Jeanette Cooper to stay warm! And here it's 54 degrees, next week, we're progged to have a multiple severe weather event. I'd MUCH rather have the cold.

An excellent poem, brrrr, you bring winter's chill into my living room! My favorite line is about the friendly heater. :) INDEED. He and I got real close this winter. LOL

(((HUGS))) and love, Karla.

I know it's of no comfort to you but I would gladly welcome the temperatures Florida is having even now. It's 7:00 AM here in the northeast and the temp has risen to 7 below zero. Anything above 30 right now would be sheer paradise. Great write Jeanette. Stay warm my friend and God bless.

Great details in this poem. I can picture you bundled up, fighting a cold. I'm not a winter fan, either, but it sure is pretty out there! Hugs,
