Twenty-Fourteen
The roads are frozen, and snow piled high
most of the south, once again see this sight
cars slipping, and sliding, off the frozen roads
can't stay outside the temperature is so low
it came so suddenly, no time to prepare
stranded people in vehicles , everywhere
can't walk steady on the frozen roads
got to be careful if you must go
shelters opening, for the stranded, and cold
neighbors helping neighbors, their goodness shows
everything shutdown as the snow came in
the south caught it hard, once again
the last time I remember, seeing such a sight
was the winter of ninty-three, now that was a fright
unexpected, and not prepared, as this one came in
twenty- fourteen, did it again
