So Mild a Winter

We have not had a winter so mild in years.
The only one I remember being this snow-free happened about 15 years ago.
I was able to drive my little Z car until the end of January.
Then all the winters after that had us buried under record snowfalls.
I am sure the birds and animals are all very happy for this easier year.
The precipitation we have received has been rain, so we are still getting what we need for water.
We haven’t escaped the ice buildup in the driveway, but not having to shovel snow has been so much easier on the back!
