Baby It’s Cold Outside! @ Thematic Attic with Diane and A-Rhodi
Please send us a HEART if you LIKE our blog!
Greeting and Welcome to:
Baby it’s Cold Outside…
And you are not looking forward to
Getting dressed in those heavy clothes of
The season
Just to go outside…
But then once you get outside
The coldness begins to mellow
And you no longer feel the biting chill of the weather,
Instead, you begin to
Smile and enjoy the sharp briskness of the day!
And as you begin to enjoy the cold your
Childhood memories flood back to your mind…
Have you ever noticed how the weather can do this to you?
Changing your thoughts and spirit from
What you were first dreading?
Tonight we ask you to share your ink on how the cold weather
Changed your perspective
Once you went outside and cleared your mind.
Tell us how the weather opened your heart to fun and laughter!
And of how something special came of it
Be creative and have fun with your poem!
And Baby It’s Cold Outside……
With love and gratitude for sharing
Your time and poetry with us!
Diane and Jon!
Don’t forget to send us a HEART if you Like out Blog!
Brrrrr . . . . It’s even getting colder and windier here in Southern California. Wonderful blog and challenge. Will ponder and be back.
Okay.. I’ll try again and hope this will post and not log me off. Going on fourth try!!!!!
Wonderful blog.. It’s cold outside here now… I remember ice skating on my grandpa’s pond as a child dressing very warm with thick layers and drinking hot chocolate with a bond fire going to stay warm in the freezing cold. The cold never bothered me as a child while playing out in it… now today I prefer to stay indoors during the freezing cold..lol
I have to go pick up my daughter soon from work and then get to bed to start an early day tomorrow but will try and be back sometime… have a good evening all and stay warm!
Yippeeee.. it posted finally without getting logged off!

Thank you for sharing this
Stay warm Angels
God Bless You
Waiting for the day when the first flakes fall from the sky
bundle up from head to toe, old socks on our hands
we run outside, twirling and laughing, no longer shy.
The snow comes quicker, we start to play
first comes snow angels, while momma watches
out the window and makes plans…
Slowly the snow builds, we roll a little ball,
will it snow enough to build a snowman, even if it’s small?
Mom comes out with a great big bowl, hands us some
spoons and says, fill it to the rim, so we work as a team
to fill that bowl, cause we know in a little bit,
we’ll be eating snow ice cream!
Here is one It is a story about the Snow fairies…
It is always darkest before the Dawn and coldest too!
Hope you All stay warm and toastie up there hug’s sis Love the Blog :love: :love: :love:

The piece I wrote for you before our internet went out on Wednesday night with the Southern California windstorms — all such beautiful poetry posted. Thanks so much for the wonderful thematic inspiration.
WINTER’S CHILD
Autumn fades into Winter,
and leaves fall to the ground,
tumbling down before my eyes,
twirling and dancing
and landing on the ground,
shadows of late afternoon
overtaking my thoughts,
transporting me back
to those days I loved
as autumn passed,
and flakes of snow,
crystalline winter white,
snows of yesterdays gone by.
So I close my eyes
and at once I’m there
building forts and igloos,
snowdrifts everywhere;
ice castles and icicles
gleaming in the sun,
snowball fights lasting forever,
at least ’till one side won.
And as Autumn turns to Winter
and the winds swirl about,
rattling the windows
and blowing the leaves down,
this child of Winters past
remembers every flake
of snow that fell
and the anticipation
that came with
the shorter days
and the snows began,
the thrill of Winter
that lasted for months
before melting away
with the showers of Spring.
