By DEBORAH K., Swampscott, MA

   

Not much rhymes with slush

or mush.



Nothing rhymes with weather

but tether.



So

Though

The snow

Does blow



This poem about the

"pneumatics, aerodynamics, aerography, aeroscopy, aerology,

barometry, anemometry" (Roget's Thesaurus, "Weather," nouns.)



May not

rhyme-o.



You know,

It's cold

When you're old.



Whether the snuzz does bluzz

Or the snow does blow



Snow is white in the light.

(Unless it's February, which has twenty-eight days and yellow

snow and "i" before "e" except after "c" or on consecutive

Thursdays.)



Come in out of the rain!
