CR…I can’t believe I am the first to comment on this tremenoud poetic weather up-date…hope things clear up before Christmas and that you holiday plans are not totally ruined…Iof course I voted that I like this ne because you wrote it…thanks and take care…

tremendous poetic weather up-date…sorry

You vividly described the weather down in your place. I guess global warming has to be blamed…

When it snows, its fun for some but those who experience and brave it only they know what’s it like. I have experienced it many a times, initially it’s fun but after spending a few days seeing nothing but snow and fingers of the feet feeling like very chilly and biting, that’s a different experience altogether.When I was a child my father got him transfered from one such hill station due to this sort of conditions.

Christine, I was watching the news earlier, interviewing the plight of a whole pile of NZers who are stranded at Heathrow and running out of money poor things. Apparently the food at the airport is incredibly expensive. Good update here from you

nice post

Thanks 4 sharing

France doesn\’t seem to cope with this either. Very well said again, Christine. Take good care of yourself and your hubbie with this cold.
Thank you Christine for all the marvellous poems you share with us. You are so talented.

Great poem explaining the problems being faced because of weather.

That is terribly cold at a time when the heat outside is killing me!

Another vivid and well versed reminder of how, as humans, we are at the mercy of nature.

I sympathize with you for the situation in your place. Global warming has probably taken its toll on our erratic weather.

Well, Christine we are in the same boat here. I hope things are going to be better in a few days time…………I am freezing cold! Take a good care of yourself and your hubbie.

Wonderful poem Christine. The weather is changing drastically everywhere. In Newfoundland where we are usually under a blanket of snow by this time of year but instead we are experiencing five days of rain with the temp hanging around plus five. Every year our winters that once were harsh are getting milder. Great write Christine. I love your poems and truly look forward to them.

wow and here I am wishing for snow lots of it for the holidays– shame on me

Nice post.

Good post.

Thanks for share.

Very Nice Post…….!!!!! Thanks.!

wow, so cold over there, while over here I’m sweating…
very well written poem again.

great share! thanks!

And it’s only December.

Exactly Christine “What has happened to the British Climate?” I thought there was Global warming. My heart goes out to those sleeping in airports. I hope things improve soon, but the Forcast is more snow to come.

Nice Share.

Wow, Britain is in SNOW! It’s cold.

That’s a different picture of Christmas. Depressing but true.

I loved the snow until this year! The whole country has almost grind to a hault because of the snow. Would help if the councils would grit the roads and footpaths!!!!

A friend of mine is stranded in the airport with his family coz of this snow…

Just looking at the thermometer is making my teeth rattle! I am finding this year that I just cannot tolerate the cold. I dread going out and am really limiting my activities. The fact that I do not drive does not help.

Global warming caused by the industrial age and all the conveniences of modern society is causing crazy weather all over. The scary thought is, this is just the tip of the iceberg. There is a scripture in the Bible, Psalm 147:17 He casts forth his ice like morsels: who can stand before his cold?

Make the best of it and enjoy lots of hot beverages and cuddles with hubby. Thank God you are home. My heart and prayers go out to those who are trying to reach family for the holidays.

Well said. I returned last week from the UK. I landed in snow and it was a shock. I am so pleased it was not this week! Brrr

Awwwww… learn to cope! Snow is great, so many fun things to do in it!
Remember this piece next August!
Thanks,
Clay

it’s winter hear as well, but the weather is pleasant, not very cold.

I love reading your work

Merry Christmas

Hope it end soon. Merry Christmas!

I saw this on the news this morning. What is with our weather. Tomorrow is the first day of winter but we have already at least 10 nights with below freezing temps. I am going to bed soon under my warm electric blanket. Stay safe and warm.

There is a thing of having just enough snow and the acceptable temperature.Then there is another thing of having to much snow and even colder temperatures.You did a fantastic job of describing what Father Winter can do and drastically mess with daily lives when he wants to.Try to stay warm,safe and enjoy the upcoming holidays the best way you can.

Hope the snow and cold weather clears up just in time for the Christmas holidays. Sounds like a pretty bad one this year.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays

God was very intelligent to take the cold away from Africa where folks wallop in poverty. I doubt whether we could have survived such extreme whether conditions without personal resources such as the expensive heavy clothings. Most rural folks do not even have electricity and many still live in grass thatched houses-I imagine snow would just pile on such structures and break them down killing all the poor dwellers inside.As you cry of these extreme whether conditions, here in Uganda, folks are braving mean temperatures as high as 35 degrees centigrade each and everyday!

This is so interesting…didn”t understand at first that it was written as a poem.

very soon it will run.

Nice share

Hang on Christine. I ‘ll pray for your safety and comfort this winter’s day so that you have a warm and inviting atmosphere with all your loved ones. May love, peace and blessings be with you this Christmas.

Christine, stay in and be warm. I thought we were having cold weather but thankfully not near as bad as yours. We had icy roads last week and the temp was lower than it had been since the 1700’s I believe the weather man said, anyway back a long way. It has warmed up a bit.

Hope everything ok with you and your family. God bless you.

Thank you everyone. I really appreciate them. We still haven’t returned to normal and more snow is falling in parts of the country so it looks like our first white Christmas for decades.

Christine

I am so sorry to hear that you are suffering from cold and snow. I hope you get a relief soon, but at least you will have a White Christmas. I am not sure if we are going to have one in New Jersey.

I’m sorry, Christine, but I’m glad it isn’t here.

I can well imagine how hard it is to go about this way.Have hot drinks and beat the weather.

great share!~

Today around Christmas I wish you good health, happiness, fulfillment of all desires and money on Triond … Merry Christmas

With much esteem and respect Geny …

I hope the weather there is a lot better now Christine. Take care!

Love it. I love the changes in weather it would be boring without it.

As I look at the thermometer showing minus 9 degrees C, I’m still thankful that we can put some extra layers of clothing and still venture out. Sorry that you’ve gotten so much snow this year. But as mankind keeps ruining the ecosystems of the earth, we can only expect things to get worse.

I liked this one Christine cheers

I’m so glad it’s over at last. Great poem.

I can definitely relate!
