I woke this mornin' anticipatin' a steamin' cup o' joe,
But peerin' out th' winder, I saw piles an' piles uv snow!
My oh my, how I pined to live in sunny Arizony,
But no, spouse insisted we retire in snowy Colorady!
I would've much preferred to continue my cozy snooze,
But duty called so I donned my mackinaw an' overshoes.
Fer a while that savory cup uv java I must forego,
An' attack th' mounds uv blowin' and driftin' snow!
Facin' me wuz three foot drifts uv that fluffy stuff.
I knew I wuz in fer a formidable huff an' puff!
Neighbors greeted each other with frosty hellos,
Then all dug in with shovels and flyin' elbows!
I had th' sidewalk an' driveway very nearly cleared,
When comin' 'round th' bend a roarin' truck appeared.
Wuz th' county snow removal guy an' with a silly grin,
Heaped snow back on the driveway much to my chagrin!
After a couple uv cups uv coffee that I had consumed,
I agin tackled th' drive which needed to be exhumed!
This snow shovelin' thing is sure gittin' out uv hand,
But I reckon I could be in Arizony shovelin' driftin' sand!

'Tis glorious springtime agin in Wayne County, Indiana!
(Never mind that a blizzard jes' blew in frum Montana!)
Folks wuz beginnin' to till their gardens to plant pertaters,
And wuz bustin' clods to set out plants uv beefsteak termaters!
Guys is tinkerin' with their mowers though they run in fits and starts.
Shucks! They cain't use 'em nohow till the snow and ice departs!
Folks'll swat at muskeeters searchin' fer elusive morel mushrooms.
All these pesky things will be forgotten if'n ever the peonies blooms!
Cardinals and robins returnin' home by the snow is confused.
Them hearty "snowbirds" comin' back from Floriday ain't amused!
But all too soon they'll face the stiflin' humidity and heat.
Come this October they'll return to their Dixie Land retreat!
Farmers is tunin' John Deeres to plow but the ground is froze.
They cain't even rely on the Farmer's Almanac, heaven knows!
Jes' when the apple, peach and mulberry trees wuz all abloom,
Along came the springtime freeze and, alas, they met their doom!
Another thing that has some Hoosier folks in a terrible snit,
Is the change to daylight savin's time but they'll git over it.
The good folks of Wayne County have jes' one simple request:
"Montana! We'd be obliged if'n you kept yer weather way out west!"
