Snowy Misery

The glistening snow

The crystal covered trees

A lovely show

Who wouldn't this please?

 

Me! That's who!

My car slides wacky ways,

"Stay on the street, you!"

But into the ditch it strays!

 

I start out stumblin' home

In this slushy yucky mess.

The road shines like chrome

Why the hell did I wear a dress?!

 

Arms full of bags,

Muscles tired and weak

My moral drags

And my shoes start to leak

 

My nose is running

The boogers form icicles

My bag breaks open

S**t! I broke the jar of pickles

 

Off somewhere I hear

The sounds of kids playing

A reason for cheer,

I used to love sleighing

 

Happy thoughts are lost

Replaced by fear and distress

As snowballs are tossed

Ducking for cover is useless

 

"I know that's you Tom!

Along with the rest of the clan!

I'm calling your mom!

That goes double for Mike and Stan!"

 

I round my corner

My sweet home in sight

Can't wait to get warmer

And settle in for the night.

 

I search my purse

The key ring with a star

This never-ending curse!

My keys are in the car!

The meter isn't letter perfect ... it's not bad ... just not perfect. But ya know what? I don't care! This poem was fabulously superb. It entertained this old curmudgeon beyond words. I am SO with you on this and I chuckled the whole way through! Thank you so much for sharing this and adding some levity and cheer to my day.

This goes into my favorites.

That really sucks!

And that's exactly what happened. Everything that can, will.
I hate those kinds of days...

This was pure fun! I grinned while reading the entire thing and outright laughed in many spots. You did a great job with this piece. Thanks for sharing.
