Green To White To Green

From green to white to green What a crazy mixed up scene The weatherman's all confused Methinks he's into the booze If he starts a-guzzling gin Most likely I'll be joining him Of all my years here on earth This kinda stuff is really the worst So bring on the ice and snow I'm Canadian as you know As long as things go as planned Hiccups I can now and then stand But this year the weather gods Are surely not doing their jobs!

Darn and I thought this poem was about me. : ) Nice one Jack. No snow down here but our green is replaced by browns in the winter. I am sure the white is much nicer to look at.

I have always loved your quirky sense of humor Jack. Thank you for starting my day with a smile. Hope you are well. A long long time ago, I used to drink crown royal. That is all I need to know about Canada but I have been there 100's of times. I used to be a truck driver.

My brother-in-law was a big fan of Crown Royal... lived to 94 so there you go! LOL Proves it's good for you! A truck driver who writes poetry... unusual!? Been here 100s of times... don't remember you! Keep smiling' my friend...
