Another poem, if you can stand one more item that is not about Farmalls. Happy Holidaze!

The Snow and I

On the first snowy day I shovelled the drive,
And on every face was a grin.
The snow-plow came by and I waved to the guy,
And shovelled the driveway again.

We popped some popcorn and made some hot cider,
Pleased that the snow was not rain.
I fell on the ice, but the cold air was nice,
As I shovelled the driveway again.

I jump-started the car but didn't get far,
As I slid through a fence down the lane.
the tow-truck came soon and I got home by noon,
And shoveled the driveway again.

My next little slip injured my hip,
but I crawled in in spite of the pain.
I took a hot shower and rested an hour,
And shovelled the driveway again.

When the limb broke the lines I fell off the roof,
And gave my poor back quite a sprain.
But I knew I'd be found as I lay on the ground,
And could shovel the driveway again.

When the house got so cold, my wife packed her bags,
And smiled as she waved from the train.
I bought heavy socks and a new pair of gloves,
And shovelled the driveway again.

Since the car wouldn't run, I missed a week's work,
And the boss called up to complain.
He said I was fired, and 'though I was tired,
I shovelled the driveway again.

Now I can't speak and I'm feeling quite weak,
From backache and sore-throat pain.
But the snowplow came by and I'll just have to try
To shovel the driveway again.

They say that down south they don't have this snow
And I wonder if I am insane?
I'd ponder it more, but I'm just out the door,
To shovel the driveway again.
