Why Is Snow White

Why is snow always white?
It's the question on my mind.
I asked the folks I thought would know,
but, no answer could I find!

Though, I thought it wont be easy
For me to find out why
snow is always white
but I sure am gonna try.

First  I have to figure out
what other color snow could be?
It would have to be pastel, of course!
At least, that's how it seemed to me.

None of our basic colors would work
except maybe yellow or pink.
The other colors would be too dark
at least that's what I think!

So I thought about it long and hard,
why snow is always white?
After looking all around outside,
I think I finally figured right!

All of the colorful flowers and trees,
the beautiful blue in the sky!
Birds of many, different colors
I no longer wondered why!

There's so much beauty in this world,
it became obvious to me, 
how many different colors there are,
just look around and see!

So, the simple answer to my question,
unless I am mistaken,
the reason snow is always white -
the other colors were all taken!
