"Snowbound"

For days winter's freezing winds and snow raged
cold windows now curtained white
but, my rooms whisper peace *

White snow, furiously freely falling, carpeting the hued ground;
A freezing allegory of racism and xenophobia that’s still around:-

lost in deep snow drifts
inside we are safe and warm
dancing by firelight
the stars are twinkling
outside the snow still falling
music softly plays

It was official. There would be no school today due to heavy snow. We heard it on the radio, during the early morning show, while Mom was preparing our breakfast. Mom sighed and dropped her head when it was announced while we danced with jubilation around the kitchen table shouting “No school today. We can play all day!!” Little did we know this excitement would be short-lived.
nose-prints frozen
on a windowpane---
snowflakes dance
A hearty breakfast was followed by watching some cartoons. The rest of the morning was spent playing in our rooms. The weather outside deteriorated into the afternoon as our morning’s jubilant joy was soon depleted. Our longing to play outside was denied us and we found ourselves quickly bored. A day out or school was not meant to be stuck inside looking out at the falling snow…or so we deemed.

Against barren cliffs, daylight enters , finding
glistening horizons ,iridescent jewels keeping
lovely minarets near Olympic peaks, quietly revealing
snowbound turrets under velvet winds ..
Xanadu, you'r Zion

Snowbound
Here we are stuck in the snow.
Nothing to do and no where important to go.
Playing games and cleaning all day.
Hoping the snow will soon melt away.
Running out of things to say.
Laughing bout it all the way.
When we will get out…
No one knows without a doubt.
Until then it’s tea and cocoa.
Enjoying all the fun games we know.
Drinking liquids and snacking.
No thoughts on letting the fun go stopping.
Day one gone.
Snowbound.
It’s a new day still stuck in the snow.
Nothing to do no where important to go.
Having tons more fun.
Until this journey is done.
Enjoying ourselves as you know.
Here we are still stuck in the snow.
