Snow Play

Geese glide thru the air watching the snow roll with the flow. Squirrels jump in the piles to wiggle and roll. Dogs check every nock and cranny then run all around. Little girls make snow angels where perfect delicate wings abound. Boys make a fort with a snowball fight destined to win. Skaters sweep snow from their ice to be able to spin. Hockey players in their play scatter the snow and rough up the ice. Mothers look from the window, where while baking every thing looks nice. Sleders regale themselves in the speed of the hill. To driver’s it’s dangerous, messy, slowing everything down. But to every one it’s the time of year where joy can abound, All because the swirling madness came floating down and around. And after the fun when we lay snuggling in our beds… We’ll sleep till the next day with snow dancing in our heads. And dreading the day when the snow goes away, We can’t wait to run out and again to play.

Hi Carol...It has been way way tooooo long since I have read your work...the scene of squirrels and dogs in here is fun. I remember the days of building snow forts and the ever fast suicide hill. Congrats on capturing some reminiscent memories in your Snow Play poem. Love, Gwendolen
