In the Deep Freeze

Dangerously cold Canadian front insane sweeps down upon the Great Plains Record temperatures of thirty below honestly folks it's too damn cold Icy roads so very slick driving slow is the trick Drip the facets so pipes don't break stock up on groceries before it's too late Wear layers and cover skin protect yourself from icy hard winds Snow piles in six foot drifts hoping that the weather shifts Hunker down stay inside pets indoors to keep them alive Frostbite a real threat as those temperatures continue to dip Drink hot chocolate sip by sip cozy under blanket pile to avoid chilly nip Global warming feels like a tease as we shudder in the deep freeze
