A Northwest Springtime Carol

Leslie started it, and I helped. I bet you can guess the tune

 

 

Cats are roasting by the woodstove fire

Cold rain whipping at our nose

Blue plastic tarps being hung by a wire

And folks dressed up in rainproof clothes

Everybody knows some weenies on the barbecue

Help to make the gray skies bright

Beer and chips and some wine after dinner

Make it easier to sleep tonight.

We hope that summer's on the way

With lots of sunshine and no rain so we can play

And every bird watcher's heart will heave a sigh

When the new baby Hummers learn to fly!

 

And so I'm suggesting that without delay

All Boomers just like me and you,

 

Should wish each other many sunny hours each day,

Happy Springtime to You!!!
