 Go Away Winter!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

Go away winter,
just leave me alone
I'm tired of being
chilled to the bone...
I want to plant flowers
and sit in the sun..
This snow and ice storms
long ago lost it's fun...
i want to open
up windows and doors..
i want to cook out
and do summer chores..
I want to go barefoot
feel the grass with my toes...
winters taken my patience
about as far as it goes..
So go away winter
(todays a great day to start)
bring out Mr Sunshine
and turn him up hot...

 White Winter Gold...
 

I've been sitting and watching
as the kids from our town
take sleds up the hill
and sleigh ride back down..
from short ones to tall ones
from young kids to old
to them a big snow storm
is white winter gold...
Theres some building snowmen
some throwing snow balls..
others building snow forts
ignoring their mothers calls..
with their nose and cheeks
a bright ruby red,
and heads that are sweating
neith the caps on their head...
They just keep on sleighing
ice skating and stuff
making snow men and snow balls
They can't get enough..
I watch their parents build fires
that glow into the night
marsh mellows are roasting
It's a beautiful sight...
Time spent together
memories kept growing old..
are often the treasures
of finding white winter gold...

 NAKED TREES
 

ONE THING I'LL MISS,ONCE WINTER SPLITS
IS THE BARE AND NAKED TREES..
MOTHER NATURE'S WAITING PAINTENTLY
TO DRESS THEM UP WITH LEAVES.
I LOVE TO SEE THE SHADOW OF
THEIR TRUNKS AGAINST A SUNSET SKY...
(NAKED TREES ARE SEXY THINGS
BUT FOR WHAT I DON'T KNOW WHY...)
I LOVE THEIR BRANCHES LACED IN SNOW
UP AGAINST A SKY OF BLUE...
I LOVE THEM DRESSED UP IN ICE
WITH A BRIGHT SUN SHINNING THROUGH..
ONCE THEIR DRESSED, I MUST CONFESS
THEY DON'T DO A THING FOR ME
THOUGH I DO LOVE THE SPRING TIME BUDS
THAT CHANGE THE SECENERY..
I KNOW THAT LOTS OF YOU WILL SAY
SHE'S TALKING ABOUT A FRIGGIN TREE..
BUT DO ONE THING,FOR ME THIS SPRING
CHECK OUT A NAKED PREGANT TREE...
