Winter won't be long now.....

It's coming isn't it? Now the clocks have gone back we are starting to see it get dark earlier. The heating is on now, slippers are out, big duvets are on our beds, electric blankets and hot bottles. We've swapped sandals for boots and t-shirts have been replaced with jumpers and sweatshirts. 

It's always good to see the seasons change, it's a sign we are still living so this approach to winter gave me the inspiration for my verse today.....enjoy.

The cold dark nights are drawing in
winter is about to begin
The central heating fires up
a nice hot brew in a huge big cup

A casserole made for dinner 
chicken and veg always a winner
Homemade soup is another classic meal
a nice warm bowl for our hands to feel

A frost soon to scrape from the car
icy breath you can see from afar
Boots and socks we now put on
jumpers come out and t-shirts are gone

Will we have snow?
I'm sure Mother Nature will give it a go
Just a light sprinkling if we may
perfect and in time for Christmas Day

Oh there you see I said that word
some are not ready yet some want to be heard
Yes Christmas is not far away
Santa I'm sure will be servicing his sleigh

The shops will be busy
staff at Amazon will go dizzy
It comes around so fast
so enjoy it - make it last

For soon there will be a new year
another excuse for champagne or a beer
One thing is for sure right now
Winter is almost here and Autumn ready to take it's bow


wrap up warm!!
Thank you for passing by
please come back tomorrow for Free from Friday

Take care.
