Spring my ass! (in poetic form)
I'm not in a good mood today. I haven't been in a good mood since last night, really. My fibromyalgia has been really bad since last night, and my stupid stomach is all off again, and I just generally feel like shit. The weather hasn't been helping, either. It was warm all weekend, and yesterday, too, but then it started raining yesterday and by last night it was pouring, thunderstorms, etc. And now today we're back to cold and snowing. I was very foolish in thinking that there was any chance spring had arrived. Blah.
Anyway, two haiku today, inspired by my foul mood and the foul weather.
"Disappointment"
Tricked, believing spring
Here to stay--- ice follows rain,
Snowflakes chill my limbs
"This Chill Between Us"
I’m thinking of you
As snowflakes kiss muddy ground
Lips too cold for spring
haiku, poetry, spring, snow

The betrayal of the seasons has been captured and compared beautifully herein. Wonderful stuff.
Levon- Thanks for the comment and the poem, as well. Right now I'm trying to be a little stricter on myself with the 5-7-5. I want to make myself comfortable within the rules, and then I'll start playing around more.
Nick- Thanks so much! I'm glad the poems rang true for you.
marcia, for you and i we can expect spring-like weather in maybe May. expect the worst of the weather and you won't be disappointed . . .
