Hey Look! It's Winter!

Hey Winter, nice to see you!

You look wonderful in white!

How great, you’ve come again so soon;

Your visit’s a delight!

 

(Winter’s been a little crazy,

and I’m filled with apprehension ~

I hope he’ll settle down if we

give positive attention…) 

Author's Note

It's snowing here... again. And more is on the way this week. OK, Winter - you have our attention...

That sounds like heaven...

[Lydia Shutter]

Written like a true teacher! LOL Unfortunately, I doubt Winter will settle down anytime soon. Great personification and rhyming in this poem. I like the humor injected! Lydi**

[Rita L. Sev]

Thanks, Lydi! Yes, we have missed quite a few days due to snow, and we'll have to make them up later... But the kids still want more snow days, of course! :)

[Lydia Shutter]

Of course they do....just like the students here want more hurricane days! :)

[cycy]

hahahahahaah oh Rita, you always do have a way of bringing the fun into the oddest things. somehow I've never quite thought of winter in such high spirits. i really liked this poem,makes winter seem like the dreaded visitor that will inevitably come anyway, it's quirky and fun. well written hey :)

[Rita L. Sev]

Thanks so much, cycy! I like to find the funny wherever I can... :) And it's all pretty funny!

you gave me such a smile with this one, Rita.

we are so sick of winter here in southern illinois...non-stop...winter mix, sleet, snow, freezing rain...and now that it has tapered off...we are dealing with single digits again--

so tired, he has overstayed his welcome by several weeks.

[Rita L. Sev]

Exactly what we are getting... days of snow, then bitter cold, then a random spring like day to tease us... then back to more snow and ice... It's getting to me (as you can see!) :)

Oh man winter is on the loose again,Send some that snow here lol:) They say we are to get some but who knows.

[Rita L. Sev]

I would gladly send some if I could, Jon! We've had more than enough!

[0000000000000000000000000000]

[0000000000000000000000000000]

Wonder if any one would buy snow cones in the winter lol, Hey its an idea he he:)

[Sami Khalil]

I guess you all don't have to go to Sochi then for the winter Olympics...Just kidding.
Too much of something is not good I guess. A wonderful winter poem...:)........

[Rita L. Sev]

Thanks, Sami. I do like snow, in manageable amounts. This has been a very snowy winter - you said it - too much of a good thing!

[Sami Khalil]

Yep. You are right...Welcome...:)..................

[paddy d daly]

wow, wish we could have Winter here in Ireland sometime, all it does is rain and rain and then it rains again, nice poem.

[Rita L. Sev]

I'll be glad to send some snow your way, Paddy! Thanks for the read and comment. :)

[paddy d daly]

On second thoughts, its ok, I think the rain is ok for now!

[Frieda P]

Funny Rita, you're using reverse psychology on old man Winter....ha, nice try, hope it works! Maybe you should try sweet talking Spring too. ;-)

[Rita L. Sev]

At this point I'll try anything! Thanks, Frieda!

[redflutterby]

Haha... we had a brief snow shower earlier...it was pretty but no accumulation. Still waiting for the big one...its been a few years since we've had over four or five inches at one time. ;-). Like this one a lot.

[Rita L. Sev]

Thanks, Red. We just keep getting pounded this year. There's still a layer of ice from last week, now covered with these inches, and another storm in a few days... Enough is enough! :)

[redflutterby]

Brrr....sounds like it!! Hope you dont get hit with too much more!!
