Acrostic Poem
So April arrived, and so did the snow,
Pouring down on cars, trees, and home, but melting on the
Roads almost immediately.
It’s buried all the crocuses, under-
Neath four inches –
Glad I photographed them when I could.
Spring is such a mixed bag of
Nuts – Sunshine one day, sleet the next.
One has to wait, be patient for the day
When Summer wipes the cold ground green.
