Snowflakes falling from the sky, <br />Landing on my face as it blows by, <br />Snow Angels something you never outgrow, <br />I'm wrapped in their beauty covered in snow. <br />Up in the clouds so billowy white, <br />I'm wrapped in a blanket of sheer delight, <br />Falling from the sky without any sound, <br />Snowflakes scattered covering the ground. <br />Sun’s rays riding the snow’s drift, <br />Masquerading the winds sudden shift, <br />I squint to see the sun’s shine, <br />Little snowflakes caught in my eyes. <br />Children bundled in warm clothes, <br />Toboggan’s in hand their faces aglow, <br />Snowballs, snowmen, game of war, <br />Digging tunnels until your knees are sore. <br />Families gathering around the fire, <br />Sharing memories of the heart’s desire, <br />Piano playing heartfelt carolling songs, <br />Playing, laughing and singing along. <br />Children snuggled in for the night, <br />Snowmen glistening in the moonlight, <br />Waiting for children to come out and play, <br />Hoping tomorrow’s another snow day. <br /> <br />© 2011 Wind Songs Spiritual Poetry<br /><br />Annalee Hopkins Somerville<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/snow-day-9/
