New Norm?

Days of snow, soon became

days of freezing rain, drizzle and pellets.

In January, in Canada, it is now balmy.

I shudder at this new “norm.”


Years past my garden would be buried,

buried in depths of snow, protecting

plants from cold and sun, and now

I see May violets sprouting.


This day the garden is brown and barren.

There is no snow, no protection,

from the natural elements

and I worry if it will survive.
