New York Winter

New York Winter

Upon seeing the weather on TV, I noticed in your area

Your weather outside is dreadful But here it's so delightful
So because you've no place to go, watch it snow, watch it snow, watch it snow

It doesn't show signs of quittin You know you're stuck there just a sittin
Guess you could let the lights go low
Save some electric and watch it snow, snow, snow

It's gonna be 72 here today Why'd anyone stay up your way?
You need to find another place to go
Where there isn't any snow, any snow, any snow

Come visit, we have room with a view
Something you'll see that is new
With grass that one doesn't have to mow
And there's no snow, there's no snow, there's no snow

Poet's Notes about The Poem

In a very good mood, I wrote this to some friends who live in New York State about the toughness of winter for them compared to the mildness of South Carolina
