January in April

I awoke this morning and without a sound

I opened the window and all around

Was a very strange thing

Yes a very strange sight

The whole world was covered in a layer of white

You see I’m not tipsy

Don’t think that I didn’t know

That the fluffy flakes falling

Were none other than snow

And why you may ask

Did I ask the question, how?

How my dear friend

Could the chilly winds come now?

How? When the grass was just turning green

How? When the weather had just changed its scene

How could this happen

It could not be so

April’s meant for rain showers

And not for piles of snow

At first I felt grim

For warmth of spring had risen in me

Then I smiled, January in April

Well I guess if it must be
