SUDDEN SNOW

(“Animal Crackers in My Soup” tune)

 

After rush hour’s almost past

We encounter arctic blast…

A few light flurries then driving snow,

New England’s used to this I know.

–

Traded soup for coconut juice

Putting fluids to good use..

Irrigating is the key

Keeping this guard sleek and healthy!

–

Nothing in forecast said this soon

Most said midnight, not afternoon…

Boston channels oft ignore

Anything west of their back door.

–

Good thing I’ve got a shorter shift

Going home with a tail wind lift…

Not supposed to last very long at all,

Just another surprise winter squall!
