The
Camel’s Back
Right about the time the
camel’s back is due to break,
when gardeners’ hands
are itching for a shovel or a rake,
you’re sure to be a
lunatic if you see one more flake –
then winter drops
another foot of snow!
You don’t think you can
make it through another frigid day.
Yearning for some blue sky (you’re so sick of all that gray)
you’ve not the slightest interest what the
weatherman might say.
You’re ready to just pack your bags and go.
Then suddenly one
morning, appearing without warning:
(it makes you wonder
just how they could know
exactly when you need
them most to show)
a robin – handsome fellow,
forsythia – bright
yellow!
This camel’s safe it would appear…
that is, at least, for
one more year.
