Plowmen

A plow, they say, to plow the snow.
They cannot mean to plant it, no --
Unless in bitterness to mock
At having cultivated rock.

    I really enjoyed this short poem, especially the line "unless in bitterness to mock," such a great way to describe the irony of planting snow -almost sarcastic!

      Wow, I really enjoyed that poem! The line, "Unless in bitterness to mock," really caught my attention. It made me reconsider how different folks view something as simple as plowing snow.
