I Love Winter
(to the tune of Winnie the Pooh's Tigger Song)
Oh I love everything about Winter,
It's my favorite time of the year,
The daytime shortens to shortest,
Night time darkness is longest in length!
The weather's cool, I don't over heat, the sun loses summertime strength-
I can wear boots, long sleeves, jackets, and sweaters,
Walk Scrap anytime of the day!
Daylight savings time is fake. Noon is when the sun is highest in the sky! Turning the clocks "Spring forward, Fall back" makes no sense.
Consider the sundial. There is no turning forward or back there to set the time. Noon is noon.
How silly it would be if places like stonehenge had to adjust to the will of Daylight Savings Time! What would happen there- they'd move the rocks? Good Grief!
