AN ALBINO LIZARD

How can you find
an albino lizard
when outside there is
a snow-white blizzard?

Just a passing thought
concerning an albino lizard,
but unlike a rooster
he has no gizzard!

An albino Lizard
with eyes of red
lost in a blizzard
tomorrow will be dead!

A cold, cold lizard
in a cold, cold blizzard
wishes he was a rooster
with a warm-blooded gizzard!

Only a Wizard
could find an albino lizard.
lost and cold outside
in a snow-white blizzard!

Author’s Note: My friend, Marilyn Ferguson, who lives in Illinois, is in the midst of a white-out blizzard today.  The following poem I wrote very early this morning for a bit of humor.
