Winter sucks

I Want A Different Kind Of Goosebump

Winter sucks

this winter chill bites at my nose

clings to my skin, my hair, my clothes

a quick escape is what I crave

a sandy beach and salty wave

dandelions in a field of green

a beach and coconut sunscreen

a fruity drink to wet my lips

no frost-biting my fingertips

no crunching underneath my feet

unless it's ice chips in my teeth

sucking a lime or tiny straw

wearing a tank top with no bra

no heavy coat or furry glove

the sun on my face is what I'd love

stay up until it's 2 a.m.

get up and do it all again

a little buzz to clear my view

I can't wait till winter is through
