Slippery Paths
The days are getting longer;
The sun is slow to set.
Frustration’s getting stronger
That this isn’t over yet.
The optimists are quoting
Outlooks for a better spring
But the pessimists are noting
That we don’t know anything.
The winter’s far from over;
There’ll be frigid days ahead.
Before we’re all in clover
There’ll be slippery paths to tread.
