Dear Snow that Fell on my Front Yard Last Night,

In case you didn’t know, today is May 1, 2008.

That means that you are too late for this year. Spring began over five weeks ago, and you are too late. I have moved on with another season called Spring. So far the relationship has been slow and fleeting, but I’ve gotten out my sleeveless tops and sandals. We bought a new grill.  I am ready to put you behind me, and so are all the lovely flowers that I planted on Saturday- back when it was 75 degrees out.

Spring, and eventually Summer, and I have lots of plans to get to. Swimming and beach trips, that kind of thing. I am sure that you understand. So get the hell off my grass.

I’ll see you next December and not before.

Love,

The BD
