Notes About The Poem

The Snow Keeps Falling

The snow keeps falling, it doesn’t want to stop
Covering the trees from bottom to top
A blanket of beauty, but the roads are a risk
Not great for driving in the air so brisk
Shoveling is tiring, as the snow lands fast
But, great fun for kids who want to have a blast
The snow keeps falling, forecasters were wrong
Will it be the same Wednesday with next storm to come along?

Ahh, a great poem for us nor-easterners. I can relate growing up on the Canadian border and then Vt. My kids used to catch snowflakes on black frozen construction paper and marvel as did I, that each one was different than the other. This would be fun for a class of third graders to read and then draw. Glad to have found his one :)

I was born in Buffalo, NY. I was only a toddler when we moved to the west coast, and then the SW. As I see the news I am happy not to be dealing with what my dad had to go through while we lived there. My husband and I moved to the beautiful lands of the four seasons, and oh gosh, I really hated the snow after only a few months. It is hard to deal with! Our kids loved it though. We had snow this morning, in the desert, and it melted quickly. I hope you have sunshine soon Heidi <3

Enjoy the beauty of nature, Heidi. We haven't seen our first snow yet of this season--but I can do without.

Thank you Vijay. It was mild until January. Now we are getting dumped on with snow. I hope you have a nice evening :)
