| Brrrrrrrrr! |
| Winter time is here again, All wrapped in fleecy white ~ It settles in my bones each day, And inmy toes at night. The chill invades by every breath, The rain comes down in buckets ~ To dampen every pore of me, I just can't seem to duckit. I'm ready for the warmth of Spring, And smell of new mown grass ~ I just can't wait to feel the sun, Will Winter NEVER pass? Jan Higgins - February 2001 |
| Wishes |
| In life, I've wished for many things, Shiney slippers.....angel wings, Baby dolls with curly hair but none of these can quite compare.... To wishes that I make of late, The dreams on which I concentrate Now center on one special theme YOU are the center of my dream.... Jan Higgins |
| Solitude |
| Eyes, so blue and gentle watched As I skipped along the rutted lane And stopped occasionally To pick the early wildflowers. The air, chill from the recent Winter Yet, holding a hint of joys to come Caressed us as we walked - Making our breath a plume before our faces. The smile on your lips more gentle still As you bent to touch my cheek. Such days are rare and precious Now that years have passed behind me Memories are consolation as I sit here In lonely solitude.

| Autumn |
| Each year she comes in splendor, To thrill my very soul ~ Quiet, unobstrusive Autumn, to Usher in the cold. she stays around for Winter frost, (And sometimes doesn't know) Just when she needs to stick around, Or when It's time to snow! But old man Winter has his say, soon enough you see, And Autumn blusters as she leaves, To the great delight of......ME! Jan Higgins |
