Winter's Fading Ruins

Low gray skies fret
over winter's fading ruins
   slushy pathways
   squishy footprints
   leaking to each side
A half-snowman's grumpy

G'day Gershon … never a snowman here, but mud and slush is plentiful. Winter is winter everywhere Gershon and spring is always welcome - thank you Gershon - Lindsay

Poor snowman but he'll be back next year. Living in CA I never see snow anymore but you have now increased my missing.

We don't see anywhere near as much as we did 50-60 years ago here in Chicago. Happy warm weather, Jean! Best always, Gershon

Well, they say that 1/2 a snowman may be better than none at all.... Maybe. LOL. Thanks, Gershon
