    O, How I Loathe the Snow !

    Beetles amble swiftly amongst rotting
    Leaves in search of cover as clouds darken skies
    Umbrella days forecast - with a threat of
    Snow... O, How I Loathe The Snow !
    Tarps cover woodpiles; then the rains com-
    E bombastic in their fury with power failures in twain
    Rain's been in my prayers - I'm giddy, overjoyed !
    Yet, just the threat of snow gives me pause

    who am I but a stitch in time
    what if I were to bare my soul
    would you see me origami

    pictures.

    Lol... I had hoped a picture of snow hung in my house would be snow enough for me... alas:

    Tidings of Snow

    December has brought snow with it; I
    Embrace the wisdom of my God and His will
    Christmas is on my mind -
    Everyone in my circle is bustling; children are bea-
    Ming awaiting that blessed day to celebrate a babe
    Born of Mary in Bethlehem - Immanuel !
    Effulgent Son of God, Son of man -
    Rejoice! and sing hosannas to our King !

    So far the snow has come and gone, leaving only its bones

    Thank you ! Enjoyed yours... very literature like

    Circular Science

    Fusion futurition fulfillment,
    Or fossil fuels finally tamed ?
    Coal and oil embroiled in political foibles
    Utile or futile technologies... whatever
    Spare me your circular science

    googled some terms misspelling all, swept
    off on tangents to some falderal that to-
    ok me here and there beyond my scope
    forgetting my intent wasting easily an hour

    Sounds sooo familiar!
    ...
    Here I sit
    Wondering what it was
    I wanted to do,
    what I was going to write about
    while the rain pours down
    washing away
    the rests of carnival.

    I acrostic

    I tremble to think how man
    values the exploitation
    of fellow creatures for
    resources - like making jewelr-
    y, chess sets, and piano keys
