Fickleness
Fickleness
Lying on the sandy beach
Or next to a swimming pool
In the searing summer sun;
Sweating, blistering,
Oh to be cold, oh to be cool!
Braving the open air
In the icy winter cold;
Wrapping up from head to foot,
Frozen extremities,
Oh to be warm, oh to be hot!
Characterized by erratic changeableness or instability, especially with regard to affections or attachments; capricious.

I’m a Capricorn and so caprice is my natural mien.
As always, a delight to read
Thanks, Cin.

Thanks, Brian.
It’s the egg streams one doesn’t like!
It is so true that deprivation of something – be it heat or cold – makes one want it. Then it is SO pleasant until one gets too much and wants the opposite again!
You are so right, Col. People are weird – why can’t we just enjoy the seasons instead of wishing them away?
I go through this every winter and every summer in Oklahoma. Winters are freezing – summers are boiling. Yikes!
I think we are all guilty of this unfortunately.
