Old Man Winter

Old Man Winter, has returned
Asking us all, what have we learned?
“Was it too nice?”
“Without much ice”
“I just took a long break”
“Did you miss me, by the Lake?”
“I've returned again, and let me say”
“The Winter you remember, is here today”
“Hope you haven't forgotten me”
“This year will be colder, with all you see”
I'll bring temperatures way down low”
“Then raise them up, and let it snow”
“I'll blow the wind, from North To East”
“From South to West, will be increased”
“Shiver your timbers, it's a Winter Blast”
“Only until Spring, will it ever last”
“So put on your Long Johns, and your Beaver hat”
Lay down by the fireplace, on your bearskin mat”
“Stay warm inside, If that's what you must do”
“Or you could be staying, inside an igloo”
Up North, they always welcome me here”
“Every day, at this time of the year”
This year has been a cold one. Old Man Winter is back.
I remember the days when I was younger, snow got pretty deep.
I remember it almost was up to my chin. I'm sure some of you will
remember those days. We've had it pretty easy these last few years.
