Winter Date
My love where have you gone?
You left my Christmas bland and brown.
I hear that you’ve gone up north
To visit a girl in another town.
These late spring chills aren’t enough
I want to see rain turn to ice!
I want to see my breath like dragons smoke,
Or even a degree below forty would be nice.
Yet you leave me standing here
Waiting for some odd miracle;
I’ve found that you my dear
Are just a tad bit cynical.
You make promises you cannot keep
And make many mischievous lies,
You cast great snowstorms for the news
Yet as you do you’re breaking ties.
Oh winter, Jack Frost, I’ll always want you
Yet I suppose it’s just not my turn.
You’ll see those northern girls are lame
And realize I’m the one you yearn.
