April Snow in two poems


April Snow

Only in the North--
No, not only in Ohio--
Does snow fall on the daffodils
One month into Spring.

Not sticking to the grass,
Nor to garlic growing in the garden
Just to the roof and car,
Manmade things.

Old man winter pays us
One more visit to remind us
He still has a little left to give
Before yielding to the verdant
Splendor of spring.


April Snow Haiku

White morning surprise
Hope it doesn’t kill the buds
Looks like November
