Ode To Winter

Your days are cold and gloomy
Even in the month of July
That’s when it’s the coldest
And I can’t wait to say goodbye

As the days get shorter
It gets colder
And we snuggle by the fire
So we have found the answer

It starts to snow
When we are playing

We dream of the days
When it is warm in spring

So when it is time
The flowers will bloom
But it will take time
Till there is no more gloom.
