Michigan Winter

Living here in Michigan Since winter 2008 first began It has been bitter cold this season So I want a really good reason The temperatures are way too low Even zero and some days well below I've lived here all my life But this is just way too much strife A friend says it's global warming Still I don't like all this constant snowing

Global warming seems like a myth at times. In fact, a friend told me some scientists say we are now headed for another ice age! And I think it's starting in Michigan, from what I see in your great poem. By the way, a note to Sharon. I live in Florida and it went down to 17 degrees one night last week! Best wishes, Carolyn

It's crazy cold everywhere this year, except Florida I guess! Hang in there, Spring is just around the corner! Love, Shar xoxo
