Snow does not
care where it falls
A roof, a branch,
or on the ground
Whitening
parking lots of malls
Until plowed
into a grey mound
Snow does not
discriminate at walls
On both sides
it will be found
Kids on both
sides throw snowballs
When there
are no adults around
Snow settles
where cattle calls
Urge the
rancher and his hound
To herd the
beasts into their stalls
Where food
and warmth will be found
Snow covers long
church halls
As the choir
inside makes sounds
While the
cold air seeps and crawls
To bring a
chill almost profound
You've reminded me of the reasons I both love and dislike snow! I grew up in New England and remember it fondly, but these days I trend more towards warmer weather. Which begs the question, why do I still live in Georgia? LOL It actually isn't too bad right now - about 50 degrees. Not the balmy 75 I enjoyed in Florida over the Thanksgiving holiday, though. :)
