Parting Shot For Jb Earley Poem by ivor or ivor.e hogg

Snowflakes dance like butterflies
before my disbelieving eyes.
I was prepared to sing springs song
But it appears that I was wrong.
King Winter has not fled the scene,
despite the new shoots showing green.
But merely waiting in the wings
to find a chance to upset things.
This has to be his final try
he can’t rely on his ally.
The wind will change soon as it should
to a soft breeze to suit the mood
of spring who will repaint anew
The world that winter hid from view.
