The Light of the Snow...

Snow is coming down faster and harder, not sure how much we will get, but who cares? This is about as beautiful as it gets...


Poem Artwork

The light of the snow…


 


the light does show,


How much the snow does,


Heavily come down,


so much so that the light,


inundated by the snow,


can barely put out,


the light that is there to show…


 


The trees they are hanging so low,


that the branches near touch the ground snow,


What a wonderful show,


old man winter is putting on, this night,


As is only right as this may be his last gasp,


even as it is still February,


And try as he might,


Old man winter cannot defeat mans pollution,


the greenhouse effect, meaning shorter winters…


 


But for now, both Rufuz & Ed and old man winter, revel,


Enjoying that which & whatever the old guy can sell,


he has sold us both, this snowfall, so heavy,


He can come back and sell us anything, anytime,


                  even with a levy…
