Winter Blues.

Post by Neville Briggs » Sun Jul 06, 2014 7:53 pm

WINTER BLUES.

It's been a bleak winter
and some have the blues.
But winter's not over,
there'll be more bad news;
out under the lights
with clear frosty air
there's faint hope for turning
from days of despair.
The warm glow of summer
will surely come back
but not before next year
or longer than that.

Nice one Neville - I didn't warm to it though :lol: it's been so cold here, although no doubt colder down your neck of the woods - I don't get all these people raving on about snow that's for sure. :roll:

I may not always succeed in making a difference, but I will go to my grave knowing I at least tried.
