Frost lies on my windowsill

From winter's frozen rain

Makes waking up now just too hard

And looking out a pain

Because inside is nice and warm

With coffee or coco

Perhaps I'll just go back to sleep

And dream about the snow.

It’s that time of year once again,

Early in the morning the frost sets in.

By mid-afternoon the sun causes it to subside,

And we are no longer forced to be inside.

The scorching heat has subsided,

And a fall breeze sweeps over the fields and cities.

The cool air brings back memories,

Of younger years and old friends.

I wonder when those days will return,

The stress relieved,

The endless hurry slowed,

When the frost will again set in.
