i like the poem, but i don't think learance is a word, but it has a nice sound to it. it should be a word.

Of course it's not a word, but I do have my poetic license all framed and hung on my wall behind my head as we speak, so I can do that, lol.

It is rainy, cold, damp and damned unpleasant here today. It is currently 48 degrees at noon, but I don't know if we had a frost or not. Things don't look dead out there...so maybe we didn't get one. I really feel the mood starting to tank as the cold creeps in. Once I have on socks, a sweatshirt and an afghan over my lap...I'm done. I get so sleepy I can't do a thing.

Do you have to go to school to get your poetic license? I've been thinking of a career change:)

Very nice but keep Jack Frost out your way. Our furnace died.

Great poem. Learance may not be a word, but it is self explanatory, and I expect to hear it in sermons in the near future.

So I'm not crazy then... I read this and had to pause over 'learance' and rack my brain to try and figure out it's meaning... then decided I should find out first if the word even exists!
We've had some chilly nights here but the day time temps have usually managed to stay in the mid 70's with lots of sunshine... gotta love South Texas for that alone!

I like unusual word usage - nice poem, Ron - I was thinking that very thing when I saw the frosty tinge on my car yesterday morning. I hope it doesn't hurt my trees.
