Winter's Coming
Where did I leave My Slippers?
I know that I am not a king
Just a step up from pauper
I know when I try to sing
I sound like Cyndy Lauper …
*time after time*
Leaves fall from the trees
Pulling rake from the shed
Piled up stacks of threes
Like hearts for Mikeydred …
<3 Settle <3
Cats and dogs are next
They’ll be warm when alone
I’ll get no angry text
From lovely Courtney Capone …
🐶 Kept Promises 🐹 🎃
Propane guy just left the bill
Ft. Myers seems so far away
So, before I lose my will
I start typing to asway …
🏝🐟🦜🏝 93 🌡🌝
Heat just came on again
Warm the digits old king cole
Write words, with no pen
Maybe you’ll find your soul …
🤴 👼
Rest a sec, I think Atlanta
Still warm there in November
My weight is up, I am Santa
Sweet Christmas’ I remember …
🤶🤶🎅🎁❤🎅
I’ve had enough for Monday
Of stuck door and frozen zippers
Winter tries to come today
Still can’t find my slippers …
