| More flowers than snow! |
Barely visible, there was
no cause to worry, this
first snow of the season.
Flakes hovered before
melting against the still
warm pavement. Warm,
at least compared to the
icy miniscule snowflakes.
Water droplets, suspended
from railings and eaves,
remnants of early morning
rain set a confusing picture.
Are these snowflakes
a tease to remind us that
winter is, to use a cliché,
just around the corner?
As if we had forgotten!
To those of us who prefer
warmth, toques and gloves
were hurriedly jammed on
heads and hands, coats
bundled around shivering
torsos. Tho' snow still lingered,
my snow boots took a test run
certain to be winter ready ~ and
weather truly was just a big tease.
“Climate is what we expect, weather is what we get.”
~ Mark Twain
