How I hate the cold
My feet turn to ice
In winter I’m not bold
Indoors is where it’s nice
I shiver and shake
My lips turn blue
I cannot fake
Warm weather is due
I always wear a sweater
I always feel a chill
I always feel better
When winter’s had it’s fill
Where dreams glitter by candelight...

Yes, I assumed he’s your husband, but didn’t want to presume until I was informed. You look like a settled couple. I LOVE happy marriages.
