Old Man Winter

I'd rather dip summer
rainbows in my coffee
than put on old man
winters coat~

I'd rather Mr. Frosty
have a melt down and
let me go fishing in
my boat~

I'd rather my thermastat
say 90 than 45 below~

I'd rather be swimming at
bikini beach than shovel
this foot of snow~

Wish old man winter would
chill just once so I can
warm up this old house~

Cause if he had to pay
my electric bill he'd be
on the next train south~

Dear Cafe, can't imagine having our castle without heating! I'd say, light a candle and get the warmth and beauty of the light. But even if winter's here, our hearts should be always warm with poetry.heart beating teddybear bouquet
