Caren Krutsinger Poet Free verse

Why Are There Snowbirds

Why do snowbirds do it?
Avoiding winter like that
No freezing rain
No winter mix
No icicles falling on your head from trees
No losing control of your car
While you slide into a forty-foot embankment.
I see you have never lived in Chicago in the winter
For your face shows me you have no idea what 
I am talking about.

Heidi Sands January 17, 2020 at 2:00 PM LOL I laughed at this . Loved it Caren :) Caren Krutsinger January 17, 2020 at 4:00 PM Thank you Heidi. Our winter storm is so bad today the forecaster have named it Winter Storm Jacob!

Sandra Adams January 17, 2020 at 11:28 AM well i am in a state that gets this weather, although we had been blessed thus far this winter however they are calling for probably what you had today to hit us tomorrow... snow, wintry mix... at least it will hit on a three day weekend here... hugs and stay warm Sandra Adams January 17, 2020 at 7:12 PM i am in pennsylvania so not horribly far away Caren Krutsinger January 17, 2020 at 4:00 PM You must be pretty close to us. We have a four-day weekend, as school was cancelled here today.

Line Gauthier January 16, 2020 at 11:52 PM LOL not all of us live in Hawaii, Caren. Caren Krutsinger January 17, 2020 at 5:24 AM We certainly do not. School today was cancelled yesterday because we were supposed to get an icy-freezy-mix between 3 and 5 a.m. today. It is 5:23 a.m. and I am freezing, so suspect it might have happened.
