This Morning's Snow

My house is a picture postcard today.
The snow fell once more.
I groaned. It is pretty, but...
I am anxious for warmer air,
for green to be bursting forth,
for flowers to appear.
It's March all ready!
I went to St. George into Spring
and returned in a blizzard.
What a world of difference
two hours make.
And I wait,
and wait once more.

  1. I remember while living in Cedar City,the land of snow and cold winds. We would take a drive to St. George, an hour or two away and yeah there was trees in blossom and green grass growing. The daffodils were starting to bloom. It seemed unbelievable. Like spending a day in Paradise and then returning to the real world. I fell in love with St.George.

    Your house picture is very beautiful but I surely don't envy you the cold winds of springtime.

  2. This is a very beautiful snowy picture of your house. It would make a good painting with light in the window like...you know...that famous artist...Of cottages. The ground hog must have see his shadow.
