e Snow Laden Rose

A pop of pink amidst bland sky

Something sweet, which brightens the eye

Perfumes so and powers healing

As I stare at my bleak ceiling

Restitution from bitter weather

Precludes me from feeling tethered

Your taste unique, your purpose romantic

Healing me, I am once more organic e snow’s biting frost, the wind’s clamorous roar e rose, a reminder, seasons I adore

When the sunshine is no longer

Your petals grow weak, my love grows stronger

Nothing good can last, that is life’s nature

Until spring appears once more, winter now a stranger anks to all who submitted poems, and those who voted! To see the nalists, go to gvpennysaver.com/contest

SIMPLE STRATEGIES TO BE A MORE EFFICIENT DRIVER

Utilize in-vehicle energy feedback. A recent study from researchers at the Institute of Transportation Studies found that drivers who used driver feedback devices in their vehicles in an effort to save fuel improved their gas mileage by about 10 percent. Many modern vehicles are equipped with such devices, and drivers can learn to use them and reap the rewards with less frequent trips to the filling station.
