This is a song that Eric wrote while he was home sick. As he wrote it, he was undoubtedly staring out the window, with silent tears streaming down his freckled cheeks. It is to be sung to the tune of Frere Jaques.
I hate winter, I hate winter.
Where's the sun? Where's the sun?
I wear a heavy coat, I wear a heavy coat.
I'm ready for fun. I'm ready for fun!
Poignantly stated, dear brother. I myself entirely loathe the winter, and also find it tremendously more difficult to have fun when it's freezing outside. The arrival of the sunshine brings many more happy memories, and many more opportunities to have the time of my life. As I consider the coming years, and the maturity that they will require from me, I realize even more that I have to make the opportunities I do have really count. I have some big plans to do so. This summer will be the best yet, if only to make up for time lost and wasted in the knee-deep snow.
