A Coat to Coax the Springtime Snow
Thoughts tend to ebb and flow
as fleeting as
a springtime snow.
To catch one flake
may take a year
and make some fear
to ever think to grasp again.
So,
Here I'll tell a secret task
to keep the melt of frost at bay;
On a day it seems to warm...
Don a Coat!
yes, a coat for all to see!
(even as silly as it may be)
Some men's coats may look like
pens, and others still
like screens,
but,to don a coat in early spring
is just the thing to coax,
a coldstage choir cacophony!
...
So now it is I hopes you know
just which coat
you wish to show.
And, furthurmore,
I hopes
one day you'll share with me
all the Frost Your Coat's made free.
