I needed an excuse to take my mind off a few things, so I wondered if it had ever snowed in Jamaica. Jamaica Plain, MA gets a flake or two, why not Jamaica? Apart from the whole equator palaver, before a clever-dick thinks I’m thick. Which of course I am…

Let it Snow! By CpSingleton © 2014

Once there was a weather man,
He loved the ice and snow.
He bought himself a snow machine,
So, he’d not too far to go.

Then one day the real stuff came,
For him that was a shock!
From the sky the silent flakes
Covered all his block.

The city thought it is fault and
The machine: that snowy maker!
See, they had never had real snow,
In dear, sunny ole Jamaica!

He showed them the difference
‘Tween fake and real snow.
Just so they couldn’t blame him;
So that they would know.
