Snow Day
snow day has now dawned
time for my boots hats and gloves
inner child smiles wide
energy revived
gift of an entire day
mouth cracks from grinning
shrieking at tv
doing kitchen cartwheels
call up all my friends
texts on high alert
wild emojis everywhere
pinging and dinging
running to the hill
screaming with crazy laughter
slipping and sliding
all my friends are here
even those who call in sick
other school days
go home with pink cheeks
shivering inside mittens
dragging sled behind
hoping tomorrow
will be a chain of snow days
happy exhausted
