Grumpy Year
Grumpy Year.
January, thick with snow,
Can’t get out. Nowhere to go.
February, cold, pouring rain
Stuck inside the house again.
March, walking over hills and vales
Push the wheelchair freezing gales.
April brings the gentle showers
But they go on for hours and hours.
May, little birdies learn to fly,
Through clouds of midges in the sky
June, flowers bloom en mass
And cricket balls through greenhouse glass.
July, paddle in the sea.
Freezing water and sand in tea.
August, burning barbecues, wine in jugs
Covered in wasps and other bugs.
September, brings a fruit surprise
Can’t get in the fridge for apple pies.
October, all the leaves are turning brown,
Most of the sites are shutting down.
November, burning fire wood makes a pong,
Bangs and rockets all month long.
December, Christmas shopping in sleet and rain
Long, cold, dark nights and then…….
It’s bloody January again
