Icy Visitor

by Phoebe

Cold, cruel, fingers
curl around my shivering
in a chilly grip

Every body part
has very little to use
as a protection

The best thing to do
when winter pays a visit
is to stay in bed

~Phoebe~

You winter down under while I swelter in 100+ degrees of unrelenting heat, so I’ll dream some of your cool and pay the electric bill. Have a grand tomorrow…Jack

    I know I shouldn't moan Jack but I do it every year and when summer comes I moan about the heat as well - sun's smiling outside but my heat pump's on already... Laughing Hugsss...Phoebe

      Oh my! Lol.
      How about I fly over with a blankie and we share a bowl of ice cream. Lol.
      I'm not crazy dear Phoebe. Its easier to be cold and just warm up than to be hot hot hot and wait til about 2 in the morning to get cool. Laughing

    Hi, do you think your weather, especially your winters and summers have changed extremely since you were a kid?? I KNOW ours has, for the worst I must say... Very Happy Phoebe

I could handle a little bit of that "icy grip" right about now. We are being hit with lots of pretty violent thunderstorms the last week or so. Temps near 98/99 and heat index in the 3 digits - plus LOTS of humidity - ugh - summer has arrived in Virginia with a vengence. Yours actually sounds like a wonderful change of pace. Love your choice of words here - so descriptive in capturing winter's chill.

    Thanks Sandy, it would be nice though if it were possible to choose to what degree we would like our summers and winters to be. However, we can't have everything... Very Happy Phoebe

G'day Phoebe...
Please stop shooing it across the ditch. We even took a few days in Mildura to save us..it didn't work. The weather was colder up there.
Thank you Phoebe
