As far as we can see, <br />The fields snow-covered be. <br />The wind picks up a load, <br />Blows snow drifts 'cross the road. <br />Barren trees are at rest, <br />Count the many bird nests. <br />Farmer's work has slowed down, <br />Time to shop....off to town! ! <br />The holiday is here, <br />Brings festive family cheer. <br />The days go by too fast, <br />To make vacation last. <br />Iowa....soon we leave, <br />Take roads that wind and weave. <br />Head east towards Ohio, <br />New Jersey....home we go. <br /> <br />Riddle: <br />What two words are spelled the same, <br />But have a different sound, <br />One is used as a verb, <br />The other as a noun? <br /> <br /> <br />Copyright ©2000 Pene Burkey<br /><br />Pene Burkey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/winter-vacation/
