The weather is great A beautiful sunset From my window I could see The golden dune grass Waving in the soft breeze This was while the weather reporters Were predicting a huge snow storm Seven to ten inches; I proclaimed: There shall be no snow before its time Schools were cancelled for two days The next day; no snow; it was not time That evening I could not see the sun and It started to spit snow after dark The next morning; I had to say: It is time Six to twelve inches of lovely white snow I started my snow blower Worked for two hours clearing the drive Also my parking area and some of the road County workers had not yet arrived There was no traffic except for one truck It is February; the groundhog saw its shadow Stanski February 8, 2021 ^
