Twas two days before Christmas
and all through the house
the air conditioner was running
while I did grouse
The flip flops were flapping
all snug on our feet
While we visualized ice storms
to help beat the heat
And Papa in his t shirt
and I in my tank
Came to agreement
That this temperature stank
When out on the lawn
So noisy and crass
We could hear a lawn mower
Fighting back grass
Away to the window
I creep over to peek
Everything was green
On Christmas week
The children just sighed
Observing the weather
So much for wearing
That new Christmas sweater
But the lights they will twinkle
And we will be of cheer
Because we have the spirit
If not winter this year
And you'll hear us exclaim
With no snow in sight
Merry Christmas To All!
And To All A Good Night : )

Very cute... That is our weather too. Warm, and a bit windy. Not a bit of snow or rain.
ReplyDeleteHahahaha... EXCELLENT! We have a tad of cool, but are expecting RAIN. I can hardly wait... NOT.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas, Ms. G!
Love it! Unfortunately, we didn't get any snow for Christmas either. Maybe next year...I do love a white Christmas.
ReplyDeleteLOL... I'm in Orlando. Nuff said? I absolutely could not get into the Christmas spirit this year. I have a poinsettia on my porch and a sprinkling of Christmas cards on top of the bookcase. The End...
ReplyDeleteI absolutely HATE a warm Christmas!
I love your poem!
