Second Snow Day 2018: Creative Platypus
Second Snow Day 2018
There is a poetry of Depression,
But not all days are sad.
Sometimes the Universe upends
and sends
Sudden snowfall on Houston.
Even gloomy Aeschylus
At Marathon or Salamis
Broke into mock hexameter
When Xerxes turned his posterior
And fled.
Just so, some Yankee farmer
As Yorktown's disarm-er
Told a passing redcoat
As a side-note
That he liked their band's selection.
It's true that many times we lose
But we can choose
To endure
Till God sends snow
On Houston.
