Let’s see, fought the Wal-Mart crowd <br />bought milk, bread and eggs, <br />bought dog food, cat food, hamburger, <br />hot dogs, buns, mayonnaise, ravioli, <br />cheese, toilet paper, of course, <br />bought cigarettes and scotch, the staples. <br />Gotta have the staples. <br /> <br />Gassed up the truck and parked it at the end <br />of the driveway, way out of the way <br />of the monster snow plows, that can burry <br />a small house by just passing by. <br /> <br />Got out the snow shovel, brought in <br />the dogs, changed the litter box, <br />made dinner, fed the dogs and cleaned <br />the dishes. <br /> <br />Now, if the snow would just come, <br />I could rest.<br /><br />Sandra Osborne<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/waiting-for-snow/
