homographs PAD 8-3

 

Weathering the Weather

 

As I type this poem

I wonder what type

of day this will be

since spring is slow

in coming.

Just day before yesterday

I swept snow off my car.

I was wondering if spring

would skip us this year

and if we’d go straight to summer.

Sometimes it feels like that.

So will I be walking in the park today

watching children skip and play

or let my car stay parked outside,

while I’m warm inside, writing

alternating with cleaning?

Or perhaps both. Maybe after

I write and clean, I’ll go to the park,

after I decide what coat I’ll wear

from the five different ones

coating the back of my couch.
