One Man’s Sleet Is Another Man’s Poison

This weather–please take it and drive on–
Fills some folk with vigor and zest;
But the same thing which other guys thrive on
Just gives me a cold in my chest,
And a sore throat besides, and a sniffle,
Which is all quite annoying as heck–
Yet all this is merely a riffle
To the fact it’s a PAIN IN THE NECK!

2-12-44, and first half “written”
while walking to work in 6″ of
snow, and 2 above zero.
