"spring break"


Blustery Monday morning,
you arrived without much warning.
Oh, rumors aplenty I heard,
but thought they were absurd;
til I awoke and opened the blind,
and saw a world of white - how unkind!
It's mid-April and should be sunny,
but Michigan thinks it's funny
to strangle my "spring break" with snow
and cold winds that continue to blow.
As pretty as those fluffy flakes may be,
they're starting to make me a lil grumpy.
