Winter's Day In Paris

Crazy winter's day in Paris when the snow falls Kids all around throw to each other snowballs The Eiffel Tower has a backdrop of snow Residents and tourists have coffee to go I walk on the Avenue Charles -de-Gaulle All the time the snow continues to fall No fashion parade on the Champs Elysees today Too much snow has unfortunately got in the way Motorists in their Citroëns still drive too fast Walkers like me prepare for another icy blast Where are the artists in Montmartre I wonder Painting in the snow would be a terrible blunder I arrive at my destination not a moment too soon Wishing for the warmth and sunshine of June So it's off with my coat as I prepare my meal A winter's day in Paris is for sure one big deal

I truly enjoyed this piece, especially since up here in Canada all I get, when looking above the window-sill, all I get's an "eye-full" of snow here as well. HA! Like I've said in the past, when in Sudbury, do as the Parisians do...HEE HEE. Sorry for the silliness, it's really a well written piece my friend and fellow poet.
