Strange Cold Weather

This is strange weather
For the Spring season
The whole sky is coated
       grey
A wind is blowing cold
Tiny snowflakes falling
As it coats the ground
The grass a gray green
As fast as it falls-it melts
Only to begin again

The deck with white snow
Spreading outward  fast
People walking their dogs
Wearing winter coats
It has been like this 
For a whole week
This weather is cold
It feels like winter
When it is suppose to 
be Spring

Hello Deepa Oh I think it is colder her than where you are. But the weather changed from warm to cold to colder. It was like mother nature could not make up her mind. Take card. Darlene
