The festivities of christmas and winterval over
Heaven’s open to a brand new year
Everyone’s wrapped up tightly while
You are pondering when the Mercury is going to move
As you tap the thermometer on the wall
Robins, Blackbirds and Starlings are passing by the window
Expecting a bumper feast
If you put a few layers on – you might risk throwing out some birdseed
Note though – you’re in the minority –
Door Opening invites Mr Frosty for tea
Of Course – you’ve got the heating on – but just
One opening of your door brings in the cold and the wind
Remain inside – if you don’t need to go out yet
Should you have to – wear your scarves, bobble hats and mittens
