Weary of the weather...

The wind feels like it's straight from the North Pole these days. May has been horrid - cool and manytimes downright freezing, rainy, snowy, cloudy and dreary. I still have lots of garden to put in and my kitchen looks like a plant nursery because I don't dare put anything in the ground (plus who wants to work in a parka?) Oh, we have had some tiny, nice patches of weather but all too few and far between.

We were doing a poem that talks about all the months of the year and whoever wrote it doesn't live in our country.

February brings the rain
Thaws the frozen lake again

Not a chance!!
March brings breezes loud and shrill
Stirs the dancing daffodil

That's sounds like our May - as I listen to the shriek of the wind this morning sitting here in the office!

April brings the primrose sweet
Scatters daisies at our feet

May brings sunshine full and bright
Sends the busy bees to flight

Maybe our trip to Hawaii made be less content than usual with our rather harsh climate!
