Late February by Ted Kosser

  Late February reminds me of the March weather that New York goes through. Usually February is spring time in much of USA's south states but not New York. ".. the snow is no more," ".. by 5'o clock the chills come ..." both of these remind me of the Spring time in New York, but except NY gets this weather in March. The poem also ends in a good way as they bring up the "famer's body that has been missing will show up unexpeceting like a tunip," which is a very poetic way to say that farmers will be back to work soon to work on their gardens. "...bicycle, small carnivals," is signs of people starting to go out the house, not like the winter where mostly you spend in doors. "Children dress somehow of old men ..." in this line i feel like it saying that spring is wet with all the rain that children when they play together get so dirty on all their activities with one another. What do you gys think of the poem?
