Yes, You Guessed It
It's Snowing In April
That incredible white puffy stuff
Tossed from the sky
Like a ceasar salad
High in the air
Falling straight down
As Quickly as it can
Soon covering every spot
That once was bare
Large flakes lifting each other up
Climbing on the railing
All over the deck
Racing across the green grass covered lawn
It started really early
Long before I got up
The time is a little before seven
We must have an inch or maybe two
Those poor Spring flowers
Run for cover
If you know what is good for you
Too cold
You will shrivel up and freeze
All those beautiful colors lost in a world of white
The temperature thirty-six degrees
The sky filled with grey
As if a little girl scribbled it on paper
So bland and bare
Our driveway randomly speckled
Like a big Easter Egg that was misplaced
A lonely pine
Begins to whine
Bring back Spring
Where I dangle and shine in the wind

Gypsy Rose Lee The Spring is in hiding. The weather dropped down and we had frost on our windshields. Light rain and rain again on Friday. We can't put away our heavy winter jackets just yet. I like the change in the weather as much as I dislike it cold again. I can enjoy one day and be frustrated about the next. Do you put suntan lotion on every day? Do you have the air conditioner on all the time? I love the windows open and the fresh breeze. Thank you so much for reading and caring. Have a wonderful night.

I had enough of those days back in Latvia. Quite often when Easter was in early April or even late April we could wake up to snow. I am now glad to see the sunshine outside. I hope spring returns soon.

Dora Weithers In one day it all disappeared. Now that is the kind of snow I do like here today and gone tomorrow. New England weather is always kind of unpredictable. I do love the change of seasons. At least with snow we have no bugs. Thank you so much for reading and enjoying. What is the weather like there? I hope it is wonderful. Have a sweet day.

"All those beautiful colors lost in a world of white." Interesting, but I don't long for it. Like your imagery of the big Easter Egg misplaced. Good work.
