Four Short Weather Poems.... [weather; Short]

Rating: 5.0


I'm Not Counting Winter's Starlings and Crows

Today feels a lot like Spring
though I know Mother Nature
has much MORE snow to bring.

Then in a couple months more,
but not much before,
the birdies will once again sing.

Some Upsides And One Downside To Sunshine

Though the glorious sun is now shining,
I'm sure, due to the cold, some people are whining.

The sun brings forth many Spring crops,
and even some bikini tops (and bottoms) ,
but with skin cancer some tanned bodies are pining.

A Two-'hatter'-wind Chill Day

Massive winds played havoc here today;
shingles and siding here and there lay.

I was glad for my windbreaker hood,
which usually keeps my heat in really good,
but I also wore a knit hat which was handy,
and together hood and hat kept me WARM,
which was dandy.

A Little Sun Goes A Long Way

The sun is struggling to be seen,
but the grey cloud bank is being mean.

Oh! Just now the sun comes out,
shining with TERRIBLE clout.

But NOW it's TOO bright.......
Let me lower my sun screen

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
before moving 5 years ago to the relatively year-round balmy weather of the central san francisco peninsula in upper coastal california, i lived my life in central western new york state, U.S.of A.
now i am 'lucky' if i see a little snow on a far away mountain, across the s.f. bay. so the poems are written from experience with 'real' winters, not the sissy winters here.

You must have missed NY. But SF is great.
