Orange You Glad You Came!
The snow birds flocked to Florida,
as soon as the holidays were done.
They flew, drove and commuted
one by one.
Take a trip to Florida,
Back home it's dreary and cold.
Let's escape for a few months,
to where the sun is bold.
Made it to the condo,
Settled in for a good night's sleep.
Woke up the next morning to this...
Hey, what the *bleep*!!!
Have a happy day:@)
LMAO - some of these are so funny this week! Your's had me laughing out loud at the end! Well done
ReplyDeleteThis was great! Don't you know there are a whole lot of visitors bleeping away this year. Fun take on the prompt. Kat
ReplyDeleteReally cute!
ReplyDelete=)
As a snowbird you have to let me copy this and send to my two sons. They will really get a kick out of it. If it was a button I'd have it on the side of my blog. Too cute.
ReplyDeleteLOL...very funny Lynn.
ReplyDeleteI grew up in Southern CA and remember the panic that the forcast of frost put into the hearts of the citrus growers. Looks like higher orange juice prices.
Blessings!

Hee hee... VERY cute! Creative I must say and it made me giggle.
ReplyDeleteDi
lol super cute.
ReplyDeleteLOL! I know, the snowbirds have all been complaining :)
ReplyDeleteVery cute and well done! I wanted to write a poem, but could not get it to rhyme (I don't understand how my cat, Sara, does it!)
ReplyDeleteBest wishes,

Perfect! Love the levity you brought to the meme!
ReplyDeleteCan you had fun writing it as we did reading it!
ReplyDeleteThat is very good! I like Ms.Jenny's blog. I enjoy the alphabet thursdays, as that's where I get creative with my writing. I haven't done any of her others, yet. I see you have quite a knack for writing, so her Meme's will be quite fun for you. Great post! Oh, and thanks for moving over with me! :))
ReplyDeleteFunny, Lynn, I guess I would be annoyed to spend money to have the same cold weather we are having!
ReplyDeleteI used to do Jenny's thing, had to quit.
You stay safe there, no slipping around!
Are you ready for some football? I am not, and I
can't get out of here!
Oh yeah... I would feel the same way!! I loved your take on this week's prompt.
ReplyDeleteHilarious! A truly creative and original take on this week's prompt! I loved it!
ReplyDeleteLynn, this is cute. You have me giggling. Great job! ~ sarah
ReplyDeleteSooooooooooo nice poem, done cleverly!
ReplyDeleteBest wishes for 2011

ReplyDeleteHappy Pink Saturday
Love it. Thanks for bringing a much needed smile to my face.
ReplyDeleteDarling Lynn. Horrible to me that it is going to snow here again on Monday (Ga.). We just do not handle it well at all..people nutt up!
ReplyDeleteExcellent!
ReplyDeleteThat is a riot!
ReplyDeleteLol. Such a funny idea, thanks for the smiles.
ReplyDeleteI am smiling! Citrus is at its peak here in Florida during the Winter. In order to protect he citrus crop they had to spray water to form ice since the temps were dipping below freezing... The snow birds have not been as happy, only that it has not snowed.
ReplyDeleteLiving in North Florida there is an actual change of seasons. The winters are cold, and it can be nasty cold but the conditions never seem to be quite right for snow.

Hysterical! You really wrote the perfect poem for this photo!
ReplyDeleteWhat a scream! Now, that is just the best rhyme ever. Being from Florida, I particularly appreciate it. LOL! I'm down in citrus country as I type.
ReplyDeleteHappy Seasonal Sunday...
XO,
Sheila :-) (who is laughing all the way!)

ReplyDeleteThis is gorgeous...I love stopping by here and today's no exception. Just love the photo.

"Too Cute Lynn"!!! My Folks AND In-laws all retired to Florida from Connecticut 35years ago, AND I have been comparing weather conditions ever since! AND I've been there and had to wear my winter cloths AND coat!!! In 78 I went down and it was SO COLD!!! We were escaping OUR BIGGEST BLIZZARD but The temp in Disney was 28degrees...They had to close down outdoor activities AND the trams could NOT RUN because the wind chill on them was below zero!!! THAT is a WONDERFUL PICTURE you have with the snow on the orange, You NEED to make a Florida Christmas Card out of it!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteWarm Winter Hugs to you,
Donna
