Constance La France Poet Iambic Pentameter

The Reason Is -

it snowed and snowed on the day I was born
and for that reason I love falling snow;
in dreams, I walk the frozen woods till morn
and from my pen the words just drip and flow.

And from a child, I was quiet and odd
choosing to read old books and write my words;
I would wander in nature and be awed
loving the songs and beauty of sweet birds.
