An Uphill Battle


“Trying to pedal up the hill in a snow storm??? Fun, right!” Gun Roswell

An Uphill Battle

Ride, ride, ride your bike
Gently up the hill
Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Life spent in a chill
(At least in winter!)

Spring Weather (four)

Posted in Simply Poetry

“In the Spring,
I have counted 136 different kinds of weather inside of 24 hours”
Mark Twain

Spring Weather

A single branch
Making its stance
Sprung out of spring
Now, let’s all sing

Spring Weather (one)

“In the Spring,
I have counted 136 different kinds of weather inside of 24 hours”
Mark Twain

Spring Weather

The grass, green
It’s the time of spring
The birds, do sing
But,
Big white snowballs
From the sky fall
WTF?

Spring Weather (three)

Suddenly,
Sunshine
Life again
Oh, so fine

Spring Weather

Life is a struggle. the say
All you can do to survive, is pray…

…Especially in a hail storm
With a kid in a trolly
Oh, what folly!

“And when it rains on your parade, look up rather than down. Without the rain, there would be no rainbow” Gilbert K. Chesterton

When it Rains it Pours

The rain came down a pouring
The sound loud as roaring
Frozen drops, balls of hail
No time to stop and flail
Pounding hard onto the ground
A safe harbour needs to be found
The nature showing it’s full force
When it rains, then it pours

Stormy Weather

“The storm starts, when the drops start dropping. When the drops stop dropping then the storm starts stopping” Dr. Seuss

Stormy Weather

Thunder and lightning
Onto the ground striking
The stormy weather
Bringing hail and rain
Forget the touch of the feather
No more dreams of the sunny
Time to wake up honey
We are not in Spain
Anymore…
