“Nothing burns like the cold.” George R.R. Martin

Frosted Forest

The snow was slowly floating
The trees with a powdery white cloaking
Like a sugar candy coating
As Mother Nature watched gloating

“Look how pretty I made it!
I don’t care one shit,
If the humans don’t see the fit.

It’s pretty and clean,
Most gorgeous thing they ever seen!

So what if it is freezing cold
And the ever rising wind blows!
Better suck it and enjoy,
For this, is my utter ploy!”

And so the little minions of Earth
Went forth in both fear or mirth
After all, how long could it be before the birth
Of summer

Mundane Monday

Monday, Monday
Where art thou Monday?
Yesterday it was Sunday
Soon the day turns to Tuesday
Did I miss Monday?
Perhaps, I thought of a different day
Simply, because the sunshine carried me away
Oh Monday, Monday
Why cannot it always be a fun day?
