Snow

Ode to Snow (or the lack thereof)
------------------------------------
O Snow you white menace
I really do hate thee
You are cold, you are wet
You are very, very slippery
-----------------------------
I only will tolerate you
Just one time a year
It's a time of gift giving
And lots of good cheer
-----------------------------
But after the carols
and presents are done
Why, then you annoy
and you're not any fun
-----------------------------
Gradually, though,
You do melt away
We all are excited
"Let's play outside today!"
----------------------------
But Snow, you're the devil
and just when we think
you've left for the season
You're back in a blink
----------------------------
A blizzard befalls us
You cover the road
You make driving scary
I cannot get home
----------------------------
So Snow, I've decided
Since I cannot escape
From your awful, cold presence
(.....wait for it.....wait for it.....)
I'm moving to Florida.
