Stop! Look! Cast your eyes
There to the north
Upon the skies
Its demeanor is quite wroth!
Clouds speed on by
Gloomy! Dark! Snowbird cries
The last of the ducks
Southerly flies
Rather late! These flocks.
Clouds speed on by
For a moment I, lost
Looked away into tomorrow
The chilled air brought frost.
Migrants from the tropic’s sorrow
Clouds speed on by
Then! As if out of nowhere
A soft brittle flake
Interrupted my frozen stare
Masses following in its wake
Clouds tightly packed, cry!
Oh my! To mu amuse
Could it really be snow?
As if not a moment to loose
Flakes wave, the wind blows
Clouds dark blanket the sky.
My face, the victim of my surprise
Pressed against the widow
Serenity envelops Earth Sea and skies!
Colliding flakes, the street light aglow
Clouds dark! Blanket the sky.
You ok! Of me, asked she
But hears no reply
I am enslaved, never again free.
My fascination I cannot deny
Clouds dark! Beguile my eye.
Now an hour hat gone by
As did four bottles o’ beer
‘Tis still 4:20 why?
Oblivious, without a care.
Clouds dark! Slowly die
Peeling my eyes from the glass
Cough! 4:20 throat dry.
Another beer! Drink fast!
‘Don’t worry sledding tomorrow’ sigh!
Clouds vanish! Wipe my eyes.
