My poem "The Quietness In The Middle Of The Night 2" is about as the towns folks are asleep in the middle of the night, the state DOT road crews are preparing for the approaching storm by treating the roads for the slippery ice and snow....

 "THE QUIETNESS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT 2"

 

 

It was the middle of the night

All was very quiet and calm

The calm before the storm delight

There yet was not need for alarm

Before the snow from the west

Would begin in fury and earnest

Nothing was moving about on the roads

Except  for the state DOT Trucks

Salting and brining the local roads

Helping drivers avoid getting stuck

Before the storm would bring a mess

And  the drivers would go amuck

In the very icy and slippery mess
