Our Northeastern Storm

(2 February 2021)

x

Somewhere this might

Land

As a Sou’wester

Here, it’s been impressive

And in too many places

Dire

x

The vaccine is frozen,

So to say

The chances to get shots

Into people  have been hindered,

Frankly stopped in the

Storm areas for now

x

Maybe there can be

A harsh and honest breath

In our disbursement process

While Democrats

Republicans

Fight for our relief

In the nation

x

The forecaster

Is citing “The Song that

Never Ends” by

Sherry Lewis that

The puppets sang

At the end of each show

Because this isn’t done

And will be

Renewed, it looks,

In two days or so

x

This snow

Plus the chill in the Capitol

x

The groundhog, by

The way, official Phil in

Punxsutawney,

Yanked out of his home

On Gobbler’s Knob,

Did not

See his shadow

Prognosticating six more

Weeks of this kind of

Winter without

An early spring

x

But my friend Debbie,

Well, she’s happy:

x

She’s been wanting

To drive around her Jeep

Through snow,

Sitting way above

The trouble down below

x

Have a great time, Debbie

We mortals lift our

Shovel heads

In obeisance

As you carom by
