Snow

Rising up from slumbers ready to tolerate life's dilemmas
Recalling back when I was just a kid, I was fearless
Hiking through the snow on glacial pavements
Participating with other youth and the childhood amazement

Watching the sky powder all Winter long over us
People with the flu and others saying what's the fuss
Skiing along the snow on frosty concrete
Feeling jovial and declare that life is complete

These days we don't see any winter wonderlands
Strolled on the beach, noticing the icy sands
Once I was ten years old lying in the snow
Throwing slush at a crowd putting on a show

We can all dream to have a time like this again
Pray to god saying a prayer, Amen
I felt once I was in an undiscovered place called Paradise
But now all we suffer is prevailing ice
