Negative Forecast

Negative Forecast

A Poem by Rita L. Sev
"

***

"

On Liza’s Facebook post today,

She whined about the cold:

“The snow is piling up out there ~

Much more than we were told!”

 

Last summer, come to think of it,

She groused about the heat:

“It’s ninety-three degrees,

And this humidity’s no treat!”

 

In Fall it’s all about

The many leaves that she must rake;

In Spring she posts a litany ~

Hay fever meds she’ll take

 

There’s just no pleasing Liza,

Whatever the condition

No matter what the seasons bring,

Unhappy’s her position.

We all have to make the best of whatever Mother Nature dishes out, that's for sure!

Lol.....I think many are never happy no matter what the situation is. Its snowing tonight...might get quite a bit. I'll be home snug in my jammies and probably miss work tomorrow. So I guess its not that bad. ;-)

I don't like facebook to begin with. I'm fine sending out the occasional email. I guess some people will find fault with everything when their internal dialog is negative.

but yes, there are those folks who aren't happy unless they are miserable.

if i were on facebook, Liza would certainly not get a "Like" from me!

:) Thanks, Neil!
Depression can be a very hard thing in one's life... seasons can have influence, but, as you describe this here poetically wonderful, on Liza there isn't any good one... you captured a real compact year, in words for this fictive or real person. Well written. I do love your stuff!
