Poet’s Showcase: ‘Memo to February’

By Susan Waldo Simmons

February 28, 2010

February, Month-so-dreary,
Folks are feeling winter-weary.
Snow-turned-brown soaks the ground,
Splashy slop is all around.

Feet are sloggin’, socks are sodden,
Thoughts of spring slip through my noggin,
Skies of gray damp the day,
February, GO AWAY!!!!!!!
