Sweet

It's snowing this Saturday morning.
The sky is gray.
The ground is white.

But, yesterday I saw a sign
of spring.  We stopped
to buy maple syrup

at Mullins Farm
in West Milan
and they were sugaring!
We bought a gallon
of medium amber
that had just been bottled that day.

So, take that, snow!
The sap is running.
Time for you to give up.

And time for me
to make
pancakes.
