Hey, it's supposed to be March!
Surely this must be a mistake.
I know the reputation of this windy month,
but at the moment the roaring lion
seems extra fierce.
Seriously,
I did not pack for wicked winter weather.
This blowing and
snowing has me puzzled.
Perhaps a protected place in the pines or
a hiding place under the Honda
while
Old Man Winter
hangs
around
a
little
bit
longer
waiting
for
the
lamb.
This afternoon, I was bundling up for a walk with my dog, Grace and I spotted my first robin of the season. She was all fluffed up, bundled up in her downy coat huddled near the front porch. For several moments, this robin gazed out at the swirling snow. It was as if she could not believe her eyes. Spring stopped by a couple times recently. I hope she comes back soon and stays put.

Looking for spring here in MI. I am so looking forward to the warmer days!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the spring too! Love that you wrote this from the robin's perspective!
ReplyDeleteThe spring Robin is a long ways off for us. Here in Minnesota we just had another Monday snow storm. We have a storm every Monday morning for the last eight weeks. Not enough to call off school or work just enough to make life awful for a day or two.
ReplyDeleteI am out searching for that robin. :)
Poor little thing! I feel sorry for that poor little robin, having to seek shelter under the car while she waits for spring! Hopefully she has found someplace warm and cozy to wait out the storm!
ReplyDeleteYour words created the personified feeling. I love your picture. I couldn't believe the snow I woke up to today. Lovely writing. Enjoyed your structure.
