Pat, here's one I wrote for last year's groundhog day:

groundhog day
my shadow one of many
shades of gray

Yes, the pesky rodent saw his shadow. And tonight we're expecting up to 12 inches of snow.

Oh, well, maybe I can get a haiku out of it.

Love it. Had a light dusting of the nasty stuff here in Atlanta this morning.

Pat, at his moment we have 12" on the ground. We now expect 18".
By Thursday the high is expected to be 52 degrees. What a winter!
