Often freaking cold at night.
Sit up nights out on the deck?
Better scarf your naked neck.
Or why there's none for Santa's sleigh?
In Colorado, where we stand,
The weather never goes as planned.
Garnish "Fire Danger" signs,
Complete with Smoky smiling bright.
Take great care for fires you light.
To sit on their elevated asses.
We're quasi-legal criminals
In spite of revenue it pulls.
And every tree in every park,
Each blue lake and weathered stone,
Make Colorado stand alone.
That nearly touches Heaven's face.
This has been an entry in #steemusa's STATE WARS! The first day's topic was State Symbols, several of which I covered in the above rhymes. Thanks @SteemUSA for giving me an outlet for my State pride!
Speaking of rhymes... I rhyme often. Check out my #dailylimerick if you don't believe me!
