It is here now
but not there yet
as the bulbs
begin to bloom
.
As coldness fades
to warmer days
and sunshine
replaces the gloom
.

Deep in the south
spring has arrived
yet the northerner
still wears his coat

In this respect
they can't claim tops
so I guess
it's our time to gloat

These are the days
they pile in cars
and head
this way yet they fret

They'll spend a week
declaring we're slow
not admitting their words
"are we there yet"?

Good idea taking 'there' as seasonal change, plus the phenomenon of people migrating for climate.
no kidding huh??? not enough good things can be said about living in the south... i love it and miss it daily.....
Enjoyable rhyme; even the rhythm reflects the humor within the content of the poem. ;) Cheers.
