In Mourning

This morning when I woke up, I noticed how dark it was in my room. It took a minute but then I realized it was rainy and gloomy outside. I LOVE IT!!!!
Winter is my favorite time. I don't know why but I feel better in the winter. I have more energy in the winter and I'm happier in the winter. Could it be because I'm a winter baby? I really don't know.

I often write letters to the weather forecasters at the TV stations asking them not to moan so much when it rains. Some of us like the rain and the dark and the cold. Walk outside in the snow and people are smiling. Walk outside in the hot humid summer and people are ready to kill. I have written a poem to winter.

i hate when winter fades
the security of dark evenings cease
i moan the loss of a breathtaking first snow
the bare sticked trees
the cold smoke breath
i welcome the summer solstice
shortened days
and long for winter to begin again
