The First Snowfall

 “Oh, Mommy, Mommy, come and see

What is happening to our tree!

It’s full of white and powdery stuff.

Looks like a lot of marshmallow fluff.

Look at it falling all around –

It’s covered leaves and hid the ground.

I’ll bet it would be so much fun

If I could go outside and run!

Do you think that I would fall?

Or would it make me very tall?

Would you see me if I lay?

Or make a hill so I could play –

Oh, Mommy, come and play with me!”

Shouts the youngster, full of glee,

As he stares at cars and trees

Planting scenes for memories.

“I saw it once – long time ago –

Now I ‘member – It was snow!”
