The sun hangs high
in the morning sky,
in the cooling air
the first snowflake flies
It flutters down
for all to see,
and gets lost among
the fallen leaves
It’s not long before
his friends arrive,
more tiny flakes
from Autumn skies
Like diamonds shining
pure and bright,
they glitter in
the morning light
The air grows brutally
frigid as North winds blow,
and the leaves get lost
beneath the snow
If all is well
and all is right,
and this continues
through the night
We’ll dash for the door,
mittens in hand,
to begin this Winter’s
first SNOWMAN!
