Deeply buried 'neath the snow <br />Lies my garden <br />I should know... <br />I toiled long and hard <br /> <br />I await the warm Spring weather... <br />Will it come? <br />And when it does... <br />Will it be THIS year? <br /> <br />For I'm convinced <br />That snow must fall <br />And so it does <br />It falls...and falls...and falls! <br /> <br />They say that with a little luck <br />We might reach a record! <br />Wowza! <br />We had 20 cms yesterday... <br /> <br />Less than a hundred to go <br />To beat the 444.1 in 1971! <br />For my American friends... <br />That would be...14.6 feet! <br /> <br />Lucky? ? ! ! <br />I say stuff it! ! <br />I've had it with shovelling <br />I want warmth...and now...please! <br /> <br />Ok...now here's a dreadful thought... <br />What if it doesn't stop snowing? ? ? <br />What if this is how the last 'Ice Age' started? ? ? <br />What if? ? What if? ? ? AAAGGGHHHHH! <br /> <br />It's ok...I'll stop to breathe now... <br />Realizing it's just 'snow panic' <br /> <br />My friends across the pond <br />Tell me they have daffodils <br />Already in bloom <br />I'm clinging to that hope... <br /> <br />Dee Daffodil (HW) 6 March,2008<br /><br />Dee Daffodil<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/deeply-buried/
