Longing For May

The snowflakes tickled my nose as I walked home from school that day,
I laughed thinking of how May is so far away.
When the snow wouldn’t be here,
And I could finally be able to see clear.
The snow sang a sad song,
Even though it wouldn’t be long till the birds would be singing their song.
The snow was as white as the paper I was writing on not that long ago that day,
Hoping to get my work done before I would be sent home until the next day.
When hopefully the snow would be gone when we could all play,
In the green grass that we see in May
