Twos

Today, on 2/2/22 The snow is melting fast. The river’s rushing southward As some police boats hurry past. My bench is dry; I’m sitting In a little patch of sun, A respite I’ll enjoy until The cold’s once more begun. A date with all those 2’s occurs Just once, but some will see A matching one with 3’s, but oh, How ancient I will be!

Love this and love that idea of sitting on a patch of sun. So clever. By the way, i never heard of zumping either until I saw it recently online mentioned!! it's sure a cute term for it

Hmmm...I suspect I won't be around for 3/3/33, but it's an interesting thought. It's also an interesting thought that I wasn't around for 1/1/1111! Seems like 2/2/22 was our only chance. Wait! Hopefully we'll be around for 2/22/22. Thanks for this ramble through time, Ilene.
