I awoke this morning To a fresh fallen snow As the world basked in it's beauty Showered in it's glow There is nothing more calming That I have ever known Than waking up in the morning To a fresh fallen snow
The children stayed home today We made angels in the snow Then all went back inside For hot chocolate by the stove No greater time together In heaven or down below As the children stayed home today Making angels in the snow
We went out sledding All the kids and me Marveled at the majesty Icicles hanging from the trees Nothing could compare That I have ever seen As we went out sledding All the kids and me
4 months later...
It snowed again today Just like the umpteen days before In fact it's snowed for four months straight But hey who's keeping score It's cold and it's wet I can't take it anymore As it snows again today Just like the umpteen days before
With all of this snow Not sure if I should flip or fly Since early September I've been stuck inside Go ahead and make your funny comments If you don't value your life With all of this snow Not sure if I should flip or fly
As it keeps on snowing The kids keep staying home What I wouldn't give For one minute of sanity alone I'm not sure who tops the list Me or them when it comes to groans As it keeps on snowing And the kids keep staying home
It's been one long blizzard I feel the need to escape I can think of plenty stronger words Let's just say snow I hate I should have moved to Florida But I'm snowed in and it's to late With this one long blizzard And no chance to escape...
A friend that moved a couple months ago to Washington D.C. asked me to write a poem on snow... I think she misses Florida...
