A Mother Goose Poem

It’s been an odd weather week. First we had warmer days in the mid 50s, followed by an amazing night and day of snow, when suddenly temperatures dropped below zero and Albuquerque matched it’s record low. Schools were cancelled, pipes busted, buses wouldnt start, un-winterized cars broke down, roads froze, the demand for natural gas overwhelmed the gas company and thousands of homes went unheated (and some still are a week later). Yesterday was beautiful, no coat necessary for the most part… today the wind came the possibility of snow threatened and passed us by. It will be a cold cold day tomorrow, followed by another handful of glorious winter days in the 50′s.
