WINTER IS BACK
On the first day of spring
We have winter coming in like
A blizzard. A foggy gray whipping
Snow about like there was no
Tomorrow. We have been fooling
Ourselves thinking that the
Worst, which wasn’t bad at all, was
Over and now this mess. The
Horizon is challenging to locate; the
Trees are still, and there is no sign of
Animals or birds. Everything and
Everyone is tucked in. Our only
Hope is that this goes away soon.
I have doctors to see and dreed
The thought of driving into town.
I hope that I am asleep and just
Dreaming this, but I doubt it.
The green lawn now has two
Inches of snow, with more coming.
April has fooled us like this in
The past, but this year it is March,
At the very end of March, which decided to
Shed its beauty on us. We know your
Beauty, please stop. You cannot talk
With nature, we can only hope.
