Spring At Last

SPRING AT LAST

spring
with snow
on the ground
what shall i wear
it’s fifty outside
not a cloud anywhere
the sky is two shades brighter
i feel just short of wonderful
and the forecast is “continued fair”
what shall i wear      why a big smile of course

I just adore this one of yours, Daver. You should have seen Utah today. SO warm and my ornamental pear tree bloomed three weeks early. (good or bad?? to be that early?)
