Flakes and Whites
Green grasses wither, ruddy flowers fade.
Here comes winter, Every man to his shade!
Falling from the sky, white flakes float
From up on high, like a sailing boat
Meandering streams they ply, in a white coat
Caught by every tree, Every blade of grass
Everywhere you see, each corner you pass
Upon every home and town, Cold and icy it may fall
Many a snow flakes now, heaping ice so tall
Bringing joy to the young, sadness to to old
Old faces turn long, bantered by the cold
Of spring's flowers that sprung, the memories they hold
Causing pain and blues; some flakes may fall.
Or being put to use, forming white snowballs
Snow can be happy, or sad and sly Laughing hysterically, or screaming a battle cry
Snow can be angry, causing men to die
Winter heralds a season of love, and of divine remembrance
Trying to be thankful enough , for the birth of he who brought deliverance
Gifts everywhere we share, or Santa's coming here and there
Gay carols filling the air , spreading the Christmas cheer
As each polar bear, hiberantes with not a day to spare
