Snow Day

Standing by the window with the moon up high
Watching the light from the cars drift on by
Snow falling down from the heavens above
Snow so white like the color of a dove
It blankets the ground with a soft touch
I love the snow, but driving in it, not so much
Next morning, I awake with the normal dismay
Until I find out the report that it's a SNOW DAY!
I grab my jacket, my boots, my sled
My gloves, and my hat, that goes over my head
I run for the door, but it isn't too long
When my mom comes forth, humming a song
She hands me a shovel, and says "Son"
When she says that, I know something's not fun
I shovel the driveway before I can play
But when I'm done I do so all day
I built a snowman from the powdery mess
And made snow angels, with wings and a dress
I sledded down the longest trail
And wiped out with an epic fail
But I drug my sled up and again I went
And drove into my snowman, which I named Kent
Then I took some snow and built an igloo
However small, it could only fit two
And as the day went on my energy depleted
Into my house me and my friends retreated
We drank us some hot cocoa and had us some lunch
Then I went back outside with the rest of the bunch
We played all day and into the night
Until it got so dark there was no light
We all went back home to our warm and cozy beds
And we closed our eyes and laid down our heads
Oh what fun times we had today
And in our memories they'll stay
