Middling Mild
Ducks are up in the air,
it is early - too much
a middling.
Nature lures,
leads us on,
the weather is wrong.
Icy licked stems
are surprised.
Defrosting ants and marmots
patch and mend,
loggers lean on buzz saws.
People take pause,
store bobble hats
and puffer jackets.
Today, to the contrary
the snow is heavy,
any hint of avian romance
is indefinitely delayed.
