Staying Warm

Cold blows a fierce breeze, that scatters the leaves all around,
The dark gray clouds look heavy, could morning find snow on the ground?
And it is a very good time, just to sit around by a nice warm fire,
Because being snug and cozy, is a necessary desire,
I guess I complained too much about the summer, and its being way too hot,
At that time I wanted it to be winter, now God has cooled it off a lot,
Maybe I should have just asked for springtime, or just letting it be fall,
It really seems some people, don’t like any kind of weather at all,
But living in Alabama, who knows what tomorrow may hold,
Sometimes it can get tedious, all this running hot to cold,
But this is the place I love, so we’ll just leave it at that,
And I’ll just hibernate for a while, being lazy and getting fat.
