Two fronts collide o'er wintry bed the ******* son they will beget will fill the hearts of men with dread for Chaos will be paid his debt Personified , his arms out-stretched shall cleave the air and heave the seas and all before his might shall fetch as dogs in effort to appease This ill-begotten scourge of hope where once was sight of early spring cares not if mortal man can cope ours to forbear , what he decrees All 'neath his reign will know his wrath the fury of his frozen heart as 'cross his realm remains no path all blanked in white , spared not in part This son of northern lattitude birthed by Atlantic's tryst with frost will crush and rend as fits his mood and we the damned shall pay the cost No few will cry and shake their fists at tragedy befallen thus as now the gods we once would blame look down and say 'twas you , not us Pray those whose hands are at the wheel that yet , in time , this too shall heal |

Excellent, Dr.Moose! We missed the blizzard here in Philly, we mostly had rain mixed with a little snow. The roads didn't even freeze. We were very fortunate this time. In anticipation of the blizzard that never was, we were let out of work early on Monday...we had the road to ourselves and it was wonderful! Seems most folks took the day off...probably the ones who cause all the accidents...hehehe....well, again, great poem! I really enjoyed it! |

Sy , Packrat , Denise , I've about had it with the snow and the cold. We got 26 inches from that storm , and just got another 10 from one on Thursday and Friday . I am not a happy camper, but hopefully the worst is over . Thanks . Doc |
