WHERE IS SPRING???
My calendar says April,
And Spring is official,
But something is wrong
In my world.
For cold winds are blowing;
It just might start snowing,
If those clouds I see
Come unfurled.
What has happened to seasons?
They have no rhyme or reason;
Now we cannot rely
On the norm.
For in winter, flowers bloom,
And this spring, cold, gray gloom
Has taken the place
Of temps warm.
Everything’s topsy-turvy,
And it causes some worry,
For I just can’t decide
What to wear.
When it’s all said and done,
Normal seasons are gone;
Weather’s gone quite berserk
Everywhere.

Sounds as though you’ve made your home in Maryland. I sure miss the craziness of that weather. Never a dull moment…

There was a touch of sleet here in Exeter today – luckily i was elsewhere!
weather’s gone topsy-turvy everywhere I think…nicely expressed…
Thank you.
It is bizarre and alarming isn’t it – i think today is winder and colder than most of the winter has been..the world certainly is a topsy turvy place at times
Portents of Doom due to Global Warming.
We are guilty guilty guilty and the polar icecaps will soon flood us.
So stop using the dishwasher and the dryer so much.
And ask for a sustainably-produced shopping bag.
Damn right-wing poets… (grumble grumble mutter)
A perfect description of the seasons…seems to be getting worse and worse with the ‘global weirding’ going on!
Climate is def changing. Where I live, it rarely snows. I hope that doesn’t change.
Remember the Promise of the Lord:
While the earth remaineth, seedtime and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease.
(Genesis 8:22 KJV)
Yes, I’m counting on that. And that’s what I keep saying about all this so-called global warming mania. The Lord made this earth with enough of everything and a plan to keep it working right until He’s done with it. We human beings are NOT going to destroy this planet, no matter how much these liberals want to believe they have that kind of power. But our heat and cold have been a little switched around lately.
Normal seasons are gone…:( that’s true. In my part of the world, it’s really hot this year…exceptionally hot for spring…
A very thoughtful poem… 🙂
I don’t like hot weather at all. Thanks for reading and commenting.
Spring is longgg forgotten at this part of the country.Its SUMMER already 😦
