Okay… so who else is like me and is so over winter????
Every Tuesday and Thursday at 6 in the morning I trudge through the freezing cold snow dragging my roller backpack. A lot of the times it gets nice and stuck in the thick ice haha… I just laugh.. No point in getting angry at the weather.. But still, I’m so over it.. I miss the sunny weather! I NEED SUNSHINE TO WAKE ME UP!!! So…. this is a poem I wrote about it.

Icicles hanging delicately from the snowy rooftops.
People humming Christmas and New year tunes.
Everyone’s getting together.
It’s that time of year…


Trudging through a foot of cool snow to get that “perfect” Christmas tree.
That’s what the beginning of winter means to me.
hanging stockings near the family mirror where dangling right next to them are heavily decorated
christmas cards sent to the family from other family and friends.
Christmas caroling and turkey and ham dinners. They’re so rich and yummy.

Friends and family gathering round
There’s no time to waste
we’re all together now..

And then……

After the Christmas season it starts to get colder.
School starts back up again
we’re walking through the cold again but this time
not going for a leisurely stroll.

It’s six a.m. I’m walking to my bustop.
It’s still dark outside and there’s no people in sight.
Oh how this town looks ghostly.
Snowflakes are landing on my nose.
I would have frostbite if it weren’t for my thermos.
I swear I can’t wait for spring to start…

I’m so over winter.
The only good thing about it is the holidays.
My face is freezing there’s no sunshine to give me color.
I’m so pale I could be Morticia’s twin sister…
I like being pale but no to this extreme..

I’m so over winter.
I get the stomach flu at least once every time.
Sore throats, diherria, food poisoning, chicken pocks, and the only thing
that heals me is time.

It gets dark so early
the trees are bare.
there’s no where to go ; there’s no where!

I’m so over winter.
I’m so over the cold.
It’s only good for the holidays
it’s only good for the snow.
I miss the sunshine.
I miss the summer rain too
Even more so than the rest, I miss having ample stuff to do!!

Thank GOD, he made four seasons because I just can’t handle only one.
winter

autumn

summer
too funny to resist….

and ….. spring!

    Hi Britt,

    I know how you feel – bring on the Summer! It’s finally beginning to get a little warmer here in Britain now, thankfully. Great photos as well, and thank you for the tip off about Hale’s Map the Music, it looks great 🙂

      Lucky you. Well, I guess I can’t complain too much since next week it’s going to be a lot warmer. I live in the states.. North East Pa to be exact and winters are pretty bitter, here haha. I can’t wait for the warmer weather. It might get up to 60 degrees!! I’m psyched! 😉 I’ll share music tips anytime haha. Music makes the world go around. 🙂 Thanks a lot ofr the comment! Enjoy the nice weather in lovely Britain! ~Britt
