Is it spring yet? Some thoughts about the weather and plants.
the chicklets are ready
to garden
but the weather
is not cooperating
it’s COLD
wet
raw
and
windy
and even when the sun’s out
it’s too cold
to do anything
and rain
is hanging around
while the temperature
dances between the
forties
and fifties
so no plants yet
not for a couple of weeks
and even then
who knows
and it’s sad
because it won’t be long
before it’s winter again
so the plants will hardly
have time to grow up
