few more months

it had to snap like
a streak of cold days
and then some rain
and warmer weather
six days away from
the pen and page
after thirty plus days
without fail
it had to snap like
the rubber band beyond
it’s furthest reach
all of the snow is starting
to melt quick as if the rain
needs help it’s only January
chances are snow will be around awhile
back to the little green table
on the small green porch
overlooking the little green
poking through the snow
in a couple spots on the lawn
most likely covered
for a few more months...
