Winter arrives on schedule every year
Bringing too much snow and cold I fear
An ice storm starts off the winter season
Staying off of the roads for good reason
Later snowfall begins to pile up outside my door
Growing deeper and deeper, please no more!
Now a polar vortex is hammering my home
Blowing Arctic air all the way to my bones
For some, they say winter is truly a paradise
Thinking to myself, winter surely ain’t nice
I bundle up in many snug and warm layers
Trying to move outside without any cares
The snow has buried the sidewalk and my car
Shoveling cannot be healthy when it’s this far
I retreat back inside to be near a toasty fire
Deciding to remain in bed until winter retires
Like a bear, I stay warm while we both hibernate
Waiting for spring’s early arrival will be our fate
