The Darn Sun

The Darn Sun

When I was a child during the winter, I hated the sun because it melted the snow.
And when the snow was melted by the sun, school was where I had to go.
As a child, when it snowed, school was closed and it was sure to excite.
But when the snow was gone, it was back to school and that sure did bite.
When I got to stay home from school, I could play my Atari and it was fun.
But when the snow melted, I had to return to school because of the darn sun.
If other children are like I was, they become very happy every time it snows.
And when the snow melts, kids become like Homer Simpson, they yell "Doh!"

(This is a true story.)

Hello Randy...

LOL!

Memories...

I used to turn on the news just to hear the school closing...

It almost seemed like they knew sometimes...

My school would be one of the last they said...

Then I'd have to watch again to make sure...

Delays were not good news...

I didn't like the consequences either if we had snow days to make up...

But, snowday...

I was usually the only kid outside and then it was my snowman and me...

Good Times!

Great write!

Thank you for sharing...

Hugs...
