Snow Was Falling

 

Snow Was Falling

© by Bud Lemire on Dec 30, 2020



Snow was falling, in the city

Many thought, it looked pretty

One young woman thought a Snow Angel would be nice

Others knew that following, would be ice


Watch the elderly, so they won't slip

They could easily, break their hip

Ice Skaters love it, and love to skate

Shanty town hoped, they had the right bait


Let's make a snowman, big and tall

And a snow fort, with a big wall

Let's make some tunnels, in the snow

I'm King Of The Hill, and you must go


Memories of going down the hill at the park

Watch that tree, or you'll leave a mark

Those were the days that we recall

As we watch and see all the snow fall


A snowball almost hit me in the face

Good thing I ducked into another place

Oh yes, the days of the snowfall are so pretty

As they fell quietly and peacefully, upon the City




I wrote this as the snow fell. Living in a place

where it snows during the Winter months, can

be enjoyable, but it also comes with more work.

But when you have grown up in such a place.

You come to accept it and enjoy the beauty and

the fun of having it snow. Of course you also

have so many great memories.
