About The Poem

The old saws resharpened series takes traditional English saying or saws and injects a little contemporary relevance. In this case the subject is climate change, over which meteorologists and politicians have vacillated for decades.

Old Saws Resharpened IV

If buds the Holly before the May,
Global warming's on its way,
But if before the May the Holly is,
Expect an Ice Age - sincere apologies.
