A huge snow storm (perhaps even a blizzard) is about to descend on New York City and has already hit much of the east coast. And that means it’s the weatherman’s time in the sun:<\/p>\n
Ode To The Weatherman (Limerick)
\nBy Madeleine Begun Kane<\/p>\n
The weatherman’s acting excited:
\nNew York City’s about to be smited
\nWith a snow storm real big,
\nWhich I really don’t dig.
\nAnd just why must he look so delighted? <\/p>\n
(Note: Yes, I know that the past tense of smite is smote. Artistic license, okay?)<\/p>\n
