Clothes for all weathers and seasons, comic poem 224 by Angela Lansbury

 I like sunshine but not too hot

My men are skiers. They like snow

So long as I have - museums

And shops! I don't care where I go

Some folks have favourite seasons

They think the others are treason

'We holiday in July.'  'Why?'

With nutters don't try to reason.

Some people like sun, sea and beach

Summer means to eat a fresh peach

Hiking, or towels out, at dawn

My dark blinds are still firmly drawn

Some like dancing in puddles in rain

At least rain will water the garden again

If it saves me effort I won't complain

If it showers an hour, that's enough rain

I've parasols in most colours

And umbrellas in the others

But go out without, look about

One dropped, I've taken, it's broken

I buy lace beach shoes, white ski boots

Boxes of too high heels, gold, cute

But wear wide Crocs, spring, summer, Fall

My hundreds of shoes are too small

I should get my act together

Not keep buying for all weather

But my strange all seasons wardrobe

Is my great all seasons treasure.
