Winter Sucks - A Seasonal Poem Not So Delightful
Winter, oh Winter, you’re a vexing collector of my spirit!
You eclipse my waning holiday buzz,
Laying claim to my days - dragging each one out,
Leaving me grumpy - leaving me in a perpetual pout.
Oh sure, you tease my summer longing heart,
With bright sun, clear skies, and a wafting sensation of warmth,
Only to lure me from my man cave to subject me to your deceitful chill.
You tortuous temptress of my aging bones! You have broken my will!
I pledge my life -my death -to your seasonal sisters: Spring, Summer and Autumn!
May their songs continue to woo my weary and chilled body,
As I celebrate the rise and fall of each passing day,
Knowing that your chilly sting is less and less.
Oh Winter, you torturous temptress of my aging bones!
You suck.
