                   APRIL FOOL

           Hey! Out there on my green lawn
                  What can I say?
             I think that white stuff
                  Is here to stay.

                April---you think?
                 Don't be a Fool.
              It's December I'm sure.
           Send the kids back to school.

               The Robens came back,
                Poor little things
                Huddled in a bunch
                 To cold to sing.

               The Daffodils appeared
                 Hopeing for Spring
              Mother Nature's gone mad
             Giving Winter a last fling.

                 Nothing seems right
              Can't get through my head.
              So, I'm shutting the blind.
                And going back to bed.

Billie - I remember many times around Easter we would receive one of mother nature's great blizzards. Not this year though, thank goodness...

Yo dear BillyC,

The idea behind this poem is very good. It's rather too warm here in Philly today.

I'm looking forward to some of the cool weather coming our way.

Love Bobby

Sometimes it snows in April and I share your sentiments. This piece flowed very well.
