Haiku inspired by snow this winter 

Yesterday was opening day in the baseball season and the Jays beat the Yanks, but here in Nova Scotia we got more snow and it's still coming down this morning.  The snowfall over the past three months has been unreal and at a time when some NS golf courses are normally opening for the season, we still have snow banks more than a metre high.
Climate changes scientists say we should expect the weather to be more erratic.  It looks like they have a convincing illustration right outside my window.
Here is a little poem honouring the occasion:

Shovell'd all the snow
the gods dump'd it down again
shovelling once more.

Sorry couldn't resist.  Now I have to go out and shovel.
