Icy Day Is All

May I tell you of the day

It’s icy here

It patterned on the windows
Through the night
With some layers now

And so
Many schools cancelled
With
So many lawsuits
Avoided

We can be litigious with our ice
And also neighborly
In that
My friendly neighbors downstairs
(upstairs
another verse)
Look to have scraped off my
Car
In the right way that heart disease
Can ill afford

In fact
My doctors say
Don’t do it

Pleasantness in winter

Then
Profundities aside
I’m simply

Thankful
