Daniel Larson Poet Rhyme

Seasonal revenge

Winds rattle the windows
     while babes are asleep;
Cows traverse the fields
     through snow that's knee deep.
Chickens are in the coup
     surrounded by straw,
They are not alone in
     waiting for the thaw.

Water pipes are frozen,
     power lines come down;
Snowplows move back and forth
     through the snow locked town.
Schools have been cancelled,
     kids skate on the ice;
Many snowmen been built,
     each one's very nice.

There be some that don't like
     all this stuff of white,
Many have left the state
     by car or by flight.
But that is nothing new,
     happens every year,
And it is they'll return
     after springtime's here.

And so the seasons go
     as the months roll by,
Time waits for no one now
     and ne'er answers why.
It's funny how it works,
     so precise, so neat,
Yet some hating the cold
     also hate the heat.
