Something To Look Forward To?



THREE WORD WEDNESDAY

'heat. nasty, cease'

SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TO?

Mid-winter here, in the land of Oz;

A gale is blowing outside because

Zooming up here from the far South Pole,

Playing a very wintry role,

A 'cold front' is attacking forcefully,

And a warm bed is attracting me.

I shall switch the electric blanket on,

And snuggle till the chills have gone.

Meanwhile, the Snowy Mountain skiers

Are surely shouting a loud Three Cheers!

The snow season here can't be relied on,

But now there's snow for sleds to ride on!

I long for the balmy days ahead,

But then it will be too hot instead!

And then I know I shall repeat

'Cease, oh, cease thou nasty heat!'

I have to say..... it can't be denied......

That I am not easily satisfied!!!!

THE LIVING FLAG

Almost like a flag it seems,

With stripes of blue on blue,

With the little pattern of the ships

That are always passing through.

It's such a very static scene,

Without the slightest motion,

Yet all is movement down below

In the engines and the ocean.

And all is movement up above

In this oh so steady sky.

For, beyond our gaze a million planets

Wink as they pass by.
