Winter Blues (Inspired by Carry on Tuesday)

I look out of the window
Onto a gloomy day
Windy as my mind
All in disarray
The leaves have fallen
It’s raining cats and dogs
Short days are calling
They’ve turned back the clocks
And I feel so blue
Because I don’t want it to be true

  2. alas poor Dani, tiz true but light a fire, drink some wine and spend the winter snuggling with the man you love. I doubt that you'll care what's going on outside.

  3. Ah, but winter also means Christmas and the first snowfall, and a new year!
    In the meantime, keep thinking thoughts of spring! : )

  7. Thanks everyone. I do like snuggling up and enjoying the cosyness of this season and also look forward to Christmas with my family but I'm a summer girl who loves warm sunshine. (I was born in June 76, one of the hottest summers ever, so no surprise ;-)
