Here comes the Snow?,,,,,,Again?..........?
It's snowing now!!
Another 8 to 14 inches expected Today !!! Enough already
Snowed Again
Andrew M
Snow softly drifts down,blanketing
everything it touches.A wonder-world
of white, piling up, adding inches
where one needs not. Awaiting the
shovel as temperature falls, as the
snow builds up so does our frustration.
When will this winter be over?
I keep hearing the songs of spring
always in the distance. So close
and yet so far. Even now I hear a
Blue Jay as I'm putting on boots
to shovel the walk. Wishful thinking
on my part, I suppose. Here comes
the first of many shove-lings. What comes
to mind is my snow blower, She fought a
valiant death, and is now a paper weight
in the garage Where o where is spring?
Allergies be damned. I want to see some
flowers blooming, grass turning green.
Trees popping, new buds spouting tiny
pieces of life. Snow,and more on the way.
A child's delight, an adults nightmare.
Imagination fills both young and old. As
the snow piles up, One could only dream
of that beach in the Bahamas. As the kids
man there forts with snowballs, soon I say
Soon is not quick enough for me though.

Expressive writing, such as this, knows no boundaries. It is a challenge to write, as the creator, and, a gemstone to savor as a reader. Bravo!

All Kinds, Think about it, even in secular terms without mentioning the bible I can answer this one There is an ole saying that Adversity if the Mother of invention, War for example is always a bad thing, but look at the advances we made n War, Medicnes and technology, I mean really ? we would have never have gotten this far if it were not for our being at each others throats ? as for diseases? Those force us to think, strive and motivate us to overcome, causes us to increase in knowledge, keeps us from being too complacent. From a Biblical Christian perspective ? I think that the answer is two-fold. One, ultimately, no one is innocent. All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God (Rom. 3:23) and are by nature children of wrath (Eph. 2:3). There is none innocent. Though this is biblically accurate, it does not satisfy the question emotionally. Why do little babies suffer for things they have not done? I must acknowledge that I do not know. Ultimately, we must trust God who knows the beginning from the end and sees the grand picture. He will have the final word and He will be vindicated. in Conclusion ? Suffering is the result of human sin. The world is not the way that God created it and because of that, all are vulnerable to the effects of sin in the world. Why does one person suffer and another does not? Why do catastrophes happen to some and not to others? It is because sin is in the world. But there will come a day when the Lord will return and cleanse this world of all sin and all suffering. "And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away," (Rev. 21:4).

I don't believe I've ever read one of your poems before. This is a great expression of frustration.
We're currently getting "dusted" not sure how much will accumulate by morning.
I love
"Allergies be damned. I want to see some
flowers blooming, grass turning green.
Trees popping, new buds spouting tiny
pieces of life. Snow,and more on the way."
Because that's why I love winter so much - nothing to be allergic to!! But yeah, I'll take a few Benadryl to be able to take a walk outside without bundling up!

So Sorry.
We got the snow that's there now, last Thursday!
I feel the same, except the snowblower is chained to the deck in my yard, not garage!
You have put a visual on paper (?), and I'm feeling the same way.
Enough already!
The snow, not you!

Hi, Andy, Sorry it took so long too answer. I was hibernating under the covers when I saw all this snow. And it`s still coming down. This
was very colorful for such a dreary day. Thanks for the up-lift. Keep writing, you are a natural. I am your biggest fan.
