On weather of February
Ah, such a harvest! I will review this weeks poems, going from South to North:
From the Medievalist, in Texas:
Sunshine and cold fog,
Texas weather is nutty,
The north wind, cruel.
Texas weather is nutty,
The north wind, cruel.
From Christine in North Carolina:

Caught my eye other day
Way, way too early
Daffy's and crocus
Spring from their earthen lairs
Making me hopeful.

Daffy's and crocus
Spring from their earthen lairs
Making me hopeful.
From Jill in Louisville:
Back steps' snow must be
swept in daytime or icy
treachery awaits.

From Desiree in Virginia:
The cold rain dampens
my mood. My skis sit unused,
with no snow outside.

with no snow outside.
From my parents in Michigan:
February gives
reasons to leave, cheap fares and
early spring somewhere.

And from Minnesota, we have Tim:

Winters mean big bucks for the
Airline industry.

And (I suspect) this anonymous entry:
Snow, brilliant blue sky
Frigid air. Sparkling landscape.
Our world is washed clean.
