I Don't Like Sleet

entry picture

It's not quite snow, it's not quite rain
Sleet melts in puddles and trickles down the drain

As snow it falls high upon the hill
Just a light dusting for now but I can feel the chill

I don't like rain, I don't like sleet
I like to feel deep snow crunching under my feetĀ 

As I wish for snow, the sleet melts away
I hope snow falls thick and fast just for Christmas Day

Thanks for the likes and comments. Sid sounds like a cool character ?.

Yes Stephen freezing rain is lethal. At least the sleet brought us some snow up on the hills.

Good poem, Julie

Sleet melts in puddles and trickles down the drain
But at least it's preferable to freezing rain

When I read the title I thought you were referring to my old mate Sid Sleet. He's a great bloke is Sid though he can be a bit wet and on occasions will give you the cold shoulder. But we don't hold it against him and his mood soon blows itself out.
