The sun is trying to peek through
Which it seems unable to do
Wish those clouds would shift
Or off they would drift

The sun is trying to peek through
Which it seems unable to do
Wish those clouds would shift
Or off they would drift
So that I could enjoy the view.

One year ends, another begins
This New Year, my head truly spins
That very last drink
Think the gin was pink

One year ends, another begins
This New Year, my head truly spins
That very last drink
Think the gin was pink
But I'm not sure, - too many gins!

If it snowed, I would truly yell, "Wow!"

Dry January is here now
If it snowed, I’d truly yell, "Wow!"

Dry January is here now
If it snowed, I’d truly yell, "Wow!"
It’s so rare these days
To have snowball plays

If it snowed,I’d truly yell, “Wow!”
It’s so rare these days
To have snowball plays

May this year be better than last
Let's hope the improvement is fast
It couldn't be worse
I've ordered my hearse
I'm still full of life - not so fast!

I love to paddle in the sea

I love to paddle in the sea
If I should see a shark, I’d flee

henetha Wed 05-Jan-22 10:42:46

I love to paddle in the sea
If I should see a shark, I’d flee
To the nearest land

lovebeigecardigans1955 Wed 05-Jan-22 15:03:37

I love to paddle in the sea
If I should see a shark, I'd flee
To the nearest land
Hope it's not quicksand

GoldenLady Wed 05-Jan-22 17:10:38

I love to paddle in the sea
If I should see a shark, I'd flee
To the nearest land
Hope it's not quicksand
And that I won't get stung by a bee.

I love to watch falling snow

lovebeigecardigans1955 Thu 06-Jan-22 13:16:41

I love to watch falling snow
Yet to slip would cause so much woe

henetha Thu 06-Jan-22 14:19:50

I love to watch falling snow
Yet to slip would cause so much woe
Wear chains on your shoes

GoldenLady Thu 06-Jan-22 15:56:29

I love to watch falling snow
Yet to slip would cause so much woe
Wear chains on your shoes
And avoid kangaroos

Jangran99 Thu 06-Jan-22 22:44:58

I love to watch the falling snow
Yet to slip would cause so much woe
Wear chains on your shoes
Avoid kangaroos,
But they live in Aussie you know.

Perhaps they’ve come over to ski
How very exciting to see,
They're good ski jumpers

Perhaps they've come over to ski
How very exciting to see
They're good ski jumpers
