Allegory of Snow

Allegory of Snow
By David J Walker

The Volunteers of 
The National Measurement Service
Are at it again

Remember when 
So many were made so nervous
By a winter wind whipping up
Deep drifts of snow 
The deepest shifts to show 
How one survived so long ago 

The volunteers know
The volunteers remember 
10 years ago in December or wait
Was it in February or maybe January 	
	
Or no
It might have been November 
20 years ago 
	
Anyway 
This is a Big Snow 
To be remembered and measured 
Against memory

As the vast and unpaid research department 
is busy creating the story
to fit some sort of a larger allegory 
About Snow
