Ode to Spring
Spring where art thou?
Here in Canada, we utterly miss thou
Warm us with your presence
It will be the most precious present
From your coldest friend
The Rebel with the most hot blooded head
I decided to sing this song because I am freezing to death here. Also, I forgot how it feels to be warm or even hot and sweaty. Although it is spring now, it feels like mid January.
I wonder how it feels right now in a nice warm climate surrounded by palm trees. The sun shining, the birds tweeting, and me relaxing by the beach. I seriously need to move to an island. I am sick of THE COLD WEATHER! It makes me cranky and bitchy, and it is enough I am naturally like that. I don’t need anymore of it!
I am a hot blooded Arab. I need to live in a hot environment! Do you see giraffes, camels, and lemurs living in snow countries? NO!
This is where I imagine my self to be right now

Happy Spring, Mona!
Yeah, I hear ya – here in Alberta we get winter for pretty much 6 months, with real summer being only July. I love palm trees too- they remind me of warm weather and vacations
Mexico sounds good right now!
OR you can consider sunny Australia. It’s almost winter here, but we are having crazy sunny and hot couple of weeks. Even winters are not as cold as how you might get in Canada…
Some of my friends call Canada a hell hole. I could never live in such cold weather. The Philippines is a tropical country and I like the sweat and dust it brings . It is 35 degrees C here now and it’s so hoooot and humid. The sun scorches the skin within minutes , but I won’t complain as I would rather be here than in a freezing environment. I hope you’ll be able to get away from there even in your mind. Cheers.
Saying all that about the weather, Canada is an otherwise great country to be in.
Mona what do you think?
I would so trade. I hate hot weather. In the cold you can atleast put on layers to keep warm but when it’s really hot and you can’t be near the a/c then that’s a problem.
@Lela
I agree with you Lela. Only think about the stifling Barcelona summer… ARGH! The problem with the hot is when you don’t have it you miss it, but when it arrives… you hate it! But I understand Mona, Canada must not be the best place for hot blooded people!
Great spring all over… happy spring time

I love Canada.. in the summer.. not in the 6 months of winter!
It’s funny you say that…. A warm country which I would relate to would be the UAE…. In the last month they had torrential rain TWICE… and they had snow in one emirate in December, and they had a cold winter this year…
It’s not an island… but still
