Sharing the Season with a Blanket Hog
...seeking solace, shivering ... can't get warm.
This stubborn, unyielding season
brings maddening, absolute refusal,
the sky unwilling to let go its take.
Nothing falls, lands on my tongue,
no six-sided tears on my eyelashes,
my vision obscured by green grass.
High temps and sun-breaking records,
and yet cold fingers of winter taunt me,
as I sit here, frozen, sans a snow blanket.
*************"They said there'd be snow for Christmas. They said there'd be peace on earth!"

if you don't like winter, come to texas--it's nearly 80 degrees here NUTS--supposed to have a cold front tomorrow, highs will fall into the low 50s by evening, and we won't get out of the 40s monday and tuesday
i don't mind the cold, it's the wind that kills me--slices right through me LOL
then again, if you like snow...like me...i haven't seen a good snowfall since 1985...13" inches...in SAN ANTONIO of all places LOL a freak snowstorm...lasted three days YAHOOOOOOOOOOO :)
all we get here is ice and THAT'S nuts--crazy drivers
hope you get the snow you want

karla. :)
