Winter Snow

Winter snow has arrived,
There is a white blanket on the ground.

White snow everywhere,
The snow flakes fall gently to the earth.

The passersby walk past dressed for the weather,
Cars covered in snow, the snow has to be cleared.

I remember the days of building a snowman,
Making snow angels in the snow.

The snowball fights and the snow forts,
We loved the packing snow.

Difficult to get to school or work,
Happy to be home again, after a day's work.

Christmas comes soon, the spruce decorated with white.
A Christmas tree in the living-room.

Good weather for skiing and skating,
God's magic is everywhere.
