Snow At School Is So Cool

To the windows the students all go. To get a closer look at the snow. The teachers began shouting although Santa fell down from the sky down below… The school was in a frenzy from head to toe. Santa was yelling his “ho, ho, ho, ho.” The windows were filled with students who know The snow is coming down with wind that will blow. A blizzard is on her way, you really must go! It is the principal with a bullhorn in tow. The busses are summoned. Drivers are yelling “whoa!” We cannot get out, or to anywhere go. So we spend the night with our charges in tow. They are hungry, so we break into the milk case and find dough. We make up cinnamon rolls. They are tasty, so We survive the night, with only the moon for a night-light glow. The next day there is still a bunch of new snow. The children are not as fascinated by the great show. To the windows no one actually looks or will go. Teachers are tired. Their faces are not fit for a beau. Parents are frantic, run in to and fro, Some take their children home early and so Some teachers get a reprieve but as you well know The usual suspects are there all day hanging low. Hey, what did you think of that beautiful snow? One of the teacher’s husbands asked, not in the know. The staff glowered at him, this silly man named Joe. Made him their Santa saying ho ho ho ho.

We have been disappointed this week. No snow. Fifty and sixty degrees!

Kids love snowy days as I remember teaching in Chicago! Tons of snow there. Christmas was fun, too. Loved your Monorhyme Panagiota xxx

Sounds like fun, being snowbound with your friends! Perhaps because I have no concept of being snow bound or chance of it ever happening in South Africa. Although it does happen in our Drakensberg Mountains. I adored this write. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

Thank you Jennifer. You are such a lovely commenter! I would mail you a box of snow, but it would not be enough.

Not fun! Snowy days are best at home but some kids have crummy parents.

winter sets in; it's the time of snow to cuddling the earthly dark body at whole night and to kiss the earthly fair body at rising sun!

Guess the novelty wore off, eh?! … Unfortunately, hunger and exhaustion were not no-shows, I guess for those kids… Nice tale! :) gw

I have a terrific friend who actually got stuck at school with the other teachers and children for the night once.
