One Week to Winter

Not a single flake of snow has fallen,
Yet the ground is covered with white.
Jack Frost is delivering sparkling rime
On this December, moonlit night.

This mischievous fellow is having fun
And he's more than willing to share.
He is inviting you to his outdoors,
If you're nervy enough to dare.

The wind has been welcomed to join the game.
He is waiting to bite your nose
And Jack Frost, the rascal, is capable
Of nipping away at your toes.

You may join their gala at your own risk,
Before Winter comes at full speed.
The party, hosted by Jack, is a blast
And a welcome to Winter indeed!!!

Dear Joyce:  Winter couldn't wait to arrive here.  We got 14 inches of snow on November 29th and it has been way below freezing ever since. Our eaves are festooned with long icicles!  I enjoyed your poem, but I am not enjoying winter half so much!

Love
Betty Lou

Thanks Marge, Annie and Betty.  I haven't had much time to write poetry, but I get a few lines down now and then.  Thanks for reading.  Love, Joyce
