In spring the fancy of this dove
will lightly turn to thoughts of love,
and since their modesty is scanty
one sometimes sees them in flagrante.
As he strolled today
he was pleased to note
that each tiny bud
wore a new fur coat.
A little rain
a little snow
a little sun –
it’s March, you know.
Unrelenting
lone crusader –
look out Dems, here
comes Ralph Nader.
It wasn’t quite fair,
as everyone knows,
for amateur liars
to face all those pros.
I can recall warm summer days
of great beauty seen but rarely;
I can recall warm summer days,
but at this point only barely.
Beneath the snow and ice
that choke us,
still fast asleep is Spring’s
first crocus.
The first snowfall of winter
in splendor did us wrap,
but now when we see snowflakes
we merely say, “Oh, crap.”
