The Day After

The new-fallen snow looks so lush
As it silences us with a hush;
     But the tires and the boots
     Seem to be in cahoots
Turning all of that beauty to slush!

I absolutely love limericks, and this one is certainly no exception. What fun! Made me laugh sitting here alone even.

If the temperature allows, that's what wil happen. But when it stays cold windsheild wipers won't be a slappen'. If they can even break away from the ice. Kind of makes slushy sound kind of nice. Peace. :)
