Nebraska Poem

[RetiredJake]

I grew up in Nebraska, have fond memories. But, as I mentioned in another post the other day, the winters can be brutal. My sister sent me the following poem about life on the prairie that describes why I am in Arizona for the winter.

It's winter in Nebraska!
And the gentle breezes blow
Seventy miles an hour
At thirty-five below.

Oh, how I love Nebraska
When the snow's up to your butt
You take a breath of winter
And your nose gets frozen shut.

Yes, the weather here is wonderful
So I guess I'll hang around
I could never leave Nebraska
I'm frozen to the ground!

And this is why I hang my hat in Florida!:bigsmiley11:

Sounds like home to this northern boy:newsmile100:
And you have to grin and bear it and wear a toque. :small3d009::small3d009:

Ohio doesn't sound so bad now.
