Go Away winter
and leave me alone..
i’m tired of being
chilled to the bone.
i want to plant flowers
and sit in the sun
I want to go swimming
“winters no fun!”
i want to open up
windows and doors
i want to go barefoot
and do summer chores
I want to mow grass
and sit in the sun
i want to plant gradens
and have summer fun.
so go away winter
and just leave me be
Summer is where
I want now to be…

Daisy,
This is my poem & picture/ this is a older poem, written in 1980 and was published that year in my local newspaper. Anything you find on my blog is mine. I do’t mind people using my poetry but please ask first. thanks.
I NOTICED THERE IS NO LINK BACK TO YOUR SITE, when there is no link back, i usually spam the comments unless i know the person is a real sincere person. but since this poem got thousands of hits on my blog. i’m leaving yours. but please -in the future if you use my work, ask first.
salutations;
Who wrote the “go away winter” poem, i just posted it on my F/B and i want to credit it to the rightful author.

I love this poem, it expresses how I feel today as I commute over snowy roads. My blog is about farm-life, too. Quite different than your beautiful poetry, still, I you will like it. http://www.oncealittlegirl.wordpress.com.
