It's Snowing

It's snowing
       even though it's
           April
              and we should be	
                 celebrating spring,
                   not building
                    snowmen
                    on our lawns.
                    It's cold
                   and windy,
                 there are no
              tulips or snowdrops.
           Winter won't walk away,
       and
I’m left feeling blue.

I can't say that I'm surprised, Emile. It's Canada, after all! lol. Here in Baltimore, Maryland it never snows in April. Thank God! Well, July weather should be much better now in your neck of the woods. Hopefully not too hot! Wonderful Yalto, my friend.
