No ice on my wings

We got the walks and driveway clear yesterday, with shovels.  The squirrels had eaten the push button on the snow blower over the summer.  The snow blower repair people will pick up the snow blower tomorrow.  The winter weather has begun the changing of plans.  One of its hallmarks. Snow days are not just for children. 

Snow here

But no ice.

The workshop for today

Was cancelled last night.

Due to inclement weather,

The leader

Was not able to fly

Across the country.

Winter weather can be hard

On wings.

She will stay

In the South

For today,

Not because of weather here

But because of

Weather there.

I learn the reprieve

Of a day set free.

No ice on my wings.

The weather has finally changed

To winter.

No ice on my wings --

Only snow.
