      they migrate anyway.

      every summer they fly south through the indian ocean, till they reach the falklands, then they catch the ferry to Antarctica where they pose for pictures for two wrists

        One of these winters I'll not get snowed / iced in.

        No penguins in the pond yet.

        No grapes in the orchard.

        No proof of any kind yet.

        Fck ye's all.

            EO - your premise is just wrong. the Antarctic is a landmass surrounded by ocean, the Arctic is an ocean surrounded by land. The Arctic is losing sea ice at an alarming rate, the Antarctic is losing land ice at an alarming rate. see for example Velicogna 2009

            The above is of course a crass simplification, but you started it.
            My subconscious is annoying. It's got a mind of its own.

                    So it is, and an Arctic Monkeys-esque rhyme pattern too. Subtle.
