The 8 Seasons of Maine



Spring has sprung! 

This post from your Maine Storytellers includes a Folk poem, an original poem and a video lecture on the Logox. Be careful as you move about during mud season. Be aware of the Vaccummudaped, a creature that lives below the earth and can suck your boot right off your foot. Dust Bunnies are abundant this year, these elusive critters are hard to catch. However they do leave their thin whispy fur everywhere and I do mean everywhere.
Get out of the cabin for a hike or a road trip, enjoy the warmer weather and remember:
Wherever you go, there you are!

Wintah is ovah the snow will soon be gone

Yessah, Mud season is comin’, its around the bend


Spring brings the black fly season


Theyah goin' to be hungree my friend




Tourists will arrive in theyah high Bread Cahs
and while theyah are shoppin heayah


We might just have a month of Summah

, if  we auhh lucky my Deayah


Soon you will see shades of brown and orange
 
As Huntin season blasts away Fall



Thanks givin, Hanukah, Kwanza, Christmas

 will make the Holiday Season, somthin to celebrate for one and all





Yessah, that’s the 8 seasons for most of us, 

who live up heayah in Maine


Unless you observe the Yard Sale, or Tax seasons

, which I think  ahh a wicked pain


Visit the county and there's 2 seasons you'd be dreddin'

9 months of Wintah and 3 months of poor sleddin'



The Logox

Tall Taleoligist Willey Phinedit (pronounced Find-It) guides us to a Deciduous Delirious, otherwise known as a "Logox". His warnings to hikers and tourists have helped many to avoid twisted ankles and bruised prides.
