Frost Advisory

We got a frost advisory
it was for last night,
down to plus two it went
my seedlings are filled with fright.

I went out around eight-thirty
a watering they did get,
to keep them all from freezing
they'll win against the cold yet.

After all the rain we had received
I didn't trust the frost,
I'll do my best to keep them warm
no matter what the cost.

I know it's Spring, but it seems Old Man Winter is still hiding around the corner.
