IT’S WINTERTIME
Summer is gone and the fall is going down
And soon in the dead of winter we’ll be found
Dig in your wallet to pay for heating fuel
Otherwise you may find your home a little cool
There will be snowy days with a lot of ice
To be out then sure wouldn’t be nice
Watch for icicles hanging from the eave
If land on you this earth you may leave
Glare ice there will be on some winter mornings
So lets keep everything clean without any warning
Some nights will be cold down around forty below
And we who have lived a few years this we know
The plows will be out sanding keeping roads clear
Give them room to work its that time of year
They do a good job out there in the worst season
If you have an accident you may be the reason
Sleigh bells will ring as horses draw people about
While others will be inside not wishing to be out
Winter birds are here like the blue jay and chickadee
And we may see a snowy owl if we look and see
The snow glistens covering the fields so white
But it sure won’t be gone within a fortnight
Some folks will go skating while others will ski
While reading writing walking etc are wished by me
Spot checks will be out to catch the impaired
As we know the road with them shouldn’t be shared
Hockey games will be played across our land
And some won’t be able to watch even if they stand
Snowmen will be made by children this we know
As they play with their friends outside in the snow
Some folks may go to a warmer climate somehow
While we wait for spring and wish for it now
Carols will be sung through the month of December
Which is what we from earlier times always remember
If schools are in they’ll have concerts like over the years
And most children will play their part without any fears
Christmas will be a time of joy for some sorrow for others
But to spend a lot of money buying things I say why bother
We know spring won’t be here for a few months yet
Yes after the poor weather it will come you can be!
