Here it is again
Last year’s news
Showing up as expected
As if by invitation
Some creep in the door
Others swirl and drift
With no dramatic entrance
Until nobody notices
And then out comes the hammer
The Big Gun, the IRS Notice
You can’t escape and
Must read, accept
Winter comes calling
Invading, advancing, entrenched
With no retreat; in fact, no horn
and no white flag
Yes, here it is again
With more than a foot in the door
Feet encased in ice
Chainsaw for water
Rude
Tideline to Treeline 
Holy Cats gal! Is that from this year? All the more reason that I live in Southeast. We don’t even have termination dust on the mountains yet. Maybe we’ll get lucky this year and have another mild winter.
