This is an unpublished poem, a quasi-sonnet to accompany my other poem for people who aren't crazy about snow.


 

IT SNOWED AGAIN THIS MORNING
Copyright 2008 -- 2009, by Terry P. Rizzuti
 
 
 
It snowed again this morning,
Sheer coldness, frank boldness.
It knows it is wrong
To come down just past dawn
As I sit drinking coffee
And bury my lawn.
 
It snowed again this morning,
Raced June toward July.
It knows I’m in mourning,
It knows I will cry.
 
It snowed again this morning,
My revenge none too soon
As the sun comes out hotter
Than Hades by noon.

I like the symbolism in "It Snowed Again This Morning"... Outstanding poetic expressions.

I felt cooled off by this poem of yours Terry!
WE have warmth here and torrential rain(off and on for a week, but I love it, it inspires me)!As your poem may inspire others and the cold snow did inspire this short sweet piece!
On the Eastern side...
WRITE ON!

I find this poem stirs my soul not unlike many of the songs of Simon and Garfunkel of the sixties. Thank you for sharing. Love and peace to you,

Believe of not, in my part of Sweden we got half and inch of snow early one morning after a few days of unbeliable good warmth weather.
And as lill'brother Jersey Ed said, keep you darn snow in Colorado! ! !

I do like snow, but not in June or July! And I doubt I could ever live in a place that did not have all four seasons (although we now seem to jump right from winter into summer these days).

i enjoyed this--we had snow in the mountains this morning as well--

Terry, if this is in any way non-fiction, please keep your snow in Colorado, though cooler temps would be a welcome change in NJ as it is predicted to be in the low to mid 90's this weekend etc...a great write as well...Ed & Rufuz
