good sign - this is march

march 16 & the snow begins to
fall


again


ah winter not quite done




the earth covered in white /
a little icing sugar to sweeten things up

& the golfers were getting so excited
& i'm sure the ski hill is happy
for a fresh coat to soften the icy base




they say 2 inches is going to fall

look up at elephant mountain towering over head
such a different view from baker st.
a guarding mountain / full blue
weather indicator






the house is a good quiet
all children sleeping
big g back on the road


& i sit nodding off / must be all the skating to day

body tired / a good sign



march comes in like a lamb



ah all sweet sunshine & all
but the cold air / the shade tells all

the ground is still frozen / & today

rain turns to snow / sticks to the ground
the trees / every thing covered &
winter again / & you ask me / i'm not surprised
@ all / because i know the snow is gone one
month early this year / & i know i've seen it snow in
late april befor / & these are the snow falls that
kill people in cars / we just didn't expect the car
would go off the road / / /

& what a crazy fucked up - - world


/ they say it's the tsunami
& probably global warming / & what an odd year
& the pine beetle that's eating all the trees in b.c.
epidemic they say / & it just won't freeze long enough
deep enough to kill them / so they just keep eating the
forest / & some where i went off track
but it's this winter / it's not done yet / there's only
snow drops in the garden / no crocus yet / not another
spring flower in sight / / / & the garden sits dormant
waits


2 more months 'til spring


thats' all /


this is march
