The gray and cold winter day
veils the bare, lonesome trees,
Horses stand still, chewing hay,
Bold fields grit their yellow teeth.
.
Houses look gloomy and brown,
Folks feel depressed and down,
When is the time to enjoy a blue sky day,
I see spring and summer coming my way.
.
Winter is plain white,
Hearts are red,
Sitcomes, cartoons, and poetry reflect minds that bright,
Hungry souls to be satisfied and fed.

I totally love this !! It rocks !! Have a wonderful week.
Wonderful, as usual :o)
I love spring and summer...all warm and sunny! But fall and winter too has beautiful days too...When the cold, gray days linger...I look forward to the breaks of sunshine reflecting on the snow. (Winter here in Georgia doen't have a lot of snow, but I recall the wintery days in northern Wisconsin at my parent's home.
Blessings & Aloha!
Thank you for stopping by!
Our souls are ever hungry!
Wonderful poem! The colors of winter is kinda gray for us..
Beautiful poem -- I think you totally nailed this part of the season. Everyone is ready for the cold and gray to be over.
Really Beautiful.

So apt of mindset, great piece!
Spring and summer are around the bend, beautiful poem, JI, my friend.
I love this one. I do so hope spring and summer are here soon.
The gray skies and the cold white of winter are sure to bring the wants of
the blues skies and warmth of spring and summer...nicely done.

I cannot wait for Spring, thanks for a taste of it and the reminders of the other Seasons. Some may not like Winter, but, it is a time for death which will bring rebirth of life!!!
The Simpsons and your poem are uplifting, reminding us of the merrier seasons to come...
I love those blues!
Happy Blue Monday, Jingle.
A great post. That poem and your cartoon go so well together. The highlight is the stunning blue sky shot. That is breathtaking.
Terrific capture and I miss spring and summer...
Good one !!
Love The Simpsons!!
So gentle and sweet - and yes, I am dreaming of the days of spring to come too!
Oh wooowww... as much as I love Winters, I have to admit Springs will ALWAYS hold their fresh charm for me! :)

I see you're really looking forward to spring! Can't blame you. Love the optimism in this poem, in spite of the initial loneliness.

Hello, dropping by here.
... a fresh coat of white snow and frozen tree branches is breathtaking, though! But it also has a long gray period!
A wonderful reflection of our different seasons and how our poor hearts (blessed hearts) get tugged right along with them.
Wonderful poem!
