It snowed so gloriously, all day long. <br />I love how snow feels in my hair, <br />So softly, slowly, fluffy fluttering <br />It falls so gently through the air, <br />Straight down, no gusty, whining wind. <br /> <br />And all the hills and mountains too, <br />Are bathed and washed out lily white. <br />With many frozen tree limbs shining <br />Shimmering, silver reflected light. <br />The river is dark and deathly cold. <br /> <br />A rabbit hopping into view, he sniffs <br />The newly cleansed cool air, and then <br />The hawk, twirls high and higher <br />Surveying an endless stretching white, <br />The river's black and charged with ice. <br /> <br />This smoothly sculpted landscape too, <br />With telling tales and lively traces, <br />And just like life that hides just under <br />Our clean and freshly smiling faces, <br />Snow hides more life than life upon it.<br /><br />Sandra Osborne<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/it-snowed-all-day/
