Nov. 25 Poem A Day Challenge

Today's prompt:  write a temperature poem.

*****

Winter is not for me.
I don't like the cold,
I don't like the wind,
I don't like the snow.

I like to wear jeans
and t-shirts
and tennis shoes,
not twenty-seven layers,

and still not be able to
feel my fingers.
What I need is someplace
warm, inviting, with an ocean,

where I can wear
what I want
and be comfortable
and not turn purple.

Well, at least it kills the bugs.
