Outside Recess in January

Daisy Peasblossom on Jan 18, 2010

Sunshine is a treasure after being cooped up for a week.

Sunshine!
Grab your coats!
Grab your hats!
Open up the door.
Lets go run and play
Kick up our heels
And Roar!

Sunshine!
Breath in
That crisp, bright air!
No more echoing gym walls
We can run if we dare!

Swing on swings!
Slide down slides!
Run and yell
Have a blast!
OUT is so much
BETTER than inside!

If only it could last!

Yesterday we went to a park
Saw many
Sliding down the snow hill
Kids and so many elderly
I too tried a sledge boldly
When we came down
Though it was so damned cold
People walked the paths
With dogs
As children
On swings and seesaw played
It was a snowy day
But like one in spring.

It is very hot here and most stay indoors for protection and to cool.
I cant wait till our winter so I can enjoy more of out side

In our part of the country, it doesn’t snow. We always have a temperature of 28 deg.C to 45 deg.C

I know that feeling so well. I used to hate it when the children had indoor playtime because their work definitely suffered afterwards. A great piece.

If we have to have cold days at least let them be sunny days. Loved your verses.

Hi there!
