Groundhog Day 2018

I watch people dancing on the open stage At Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania On this special Groundhog Day. I want to see how much fun they have And how many people dare to come On this very cold winter morn. Sun lovers dance to push winter away Snow lovers dance for winter to stay. Some people dance just for a fun day. Today is February the second Which is exactly the middle of winter months. Groundhog day tradition began 132 years ago With weather prediction by the famous Punxsy Phil Whose accuracy rate has not been impressive But for many years many people have gathered here At Punxsutawney, long before the sunrise To enjoy their own laughter and Phil's smile. By drinking the Special Groundhog punch This groundhog keeps his longevity for a long time. Musicians and dancers have performed for a long while With people clapping and singing by their sides On this very cold morn of Groundhog day Which is now thirteen degrees Fahrenheit With light flurries start to fly. The sun doesn't come up yet But this place is already packed With thirty thousands people from far and near. They await weather prediction by The Punxsy Phil* Either it's six more weeks of winter Or early spring will arrive sooner. With a hot cup of vanilla coffee in my hands And my big sweet microwave-cooked potato I watch the scenes on my computer screen. I have a good time before the sunrise On the day that marks one half of winter time: THE GROUNDHOG DAY NHIEN NGUYEN MD 2/2/2018 *Phil says 6 more weeks of winter
