RAIN AND SLEET

RAIN AND SLEET

Rain and sleet–oh how neat–

For a Springtime day…

Sounds like winter’s hanging on

And will not go away!

–

Robins, ice pellets on the head

Will think the weather’s nuts…

But  this is New England,

No ifs ands or buts.

–

Warmer weather is promised–

Perhaps for next week…

When–I wonder–willi it shine

And from the ground flowers peek?
