A challenge for the plowman
thrown down in as in a duel
the road now five feet wider
To see if he will take the bait
make my work tomorrow easier
if he will keep the parking spaces open
there in front of the church
More than they had done
same as last year
a taste of their taking the bait
in that I only cleared a veneer
The snow blower put away
until the dawn breaks
a foot or more is predicted
we will have to parry,
joust another day

snowstorm – 5 inches today so far
2 feet projected for tomorrow
