The winter that wasn't, here, so far...

Mom Nature, please send us a little snow!!


Poem Artwork

  

Looks like for the coast near NJ,

That March is coming in like a lamb,

Does that mean it will go out like a lion?

Who can predict that far ahead?

Without doing fake reporting,

Or just to the rest of us be lyin’.

 

Some like me love the snow,

Love the winter winds that blow,

Snow drifts to tramp through,

Ice storms & blizzards and such,

But so far this winter we haven’t had of this very much.

 

So till next winter I put off my desire,

As so far we have come down to the wire,

So far our winter weather has been a bust,

Please Mom Nature, can we have some snow, even a little, just?

Seems like here as well, the winters of yore are gone. Maybe five or six days this "winter." I admit that it makes me sad. Love, peace, and hopefully, some winter to you,

Regis. 🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁

I miss the snow!!! I used to love skiing and ice skating so much!! Sure there's man made snow for the slopes and indoor ice skating rinks but there is nothing like the real deal. I'm with you, Ed!!

Love ya!

According to the fake news every night, we've been getting "terrible" storms across the country all winter causing much mayhem. Glad you weren't affected by that. We have had three little freezes that we did not have to cover our tropical plants for.

Like you I have been remembering the major snow and ice events, blizzards of my youth. So glad not to have to shovel snow or even think about it anymore. The first snow is wonderful. The last snow makes you wonder if spring is ever going to come.

I feel the nostalgia, Ed. I have been missing snow for years. Thanks for reminding me how much fun it can be.

I am just as well satisfied that we've only had a 1/3 of an inch of snow this winter, across the Delaware River out here in the suburbs of Philly.

A cute poem, but I hate the snow. I'm happy we've had so little on Long Island.
