Description

It Never Snows At My House It never snows at my house That’s what I always tell people It rains a LOT But it never snows And I don’t like snow, I say It’s cold, it’s nasty And I don’t like it But today it snowed And I got on the phone And I called my son Who LIVES in the snow And told him it was snowing I called my sister I called my friend Just to tell them It’s SNOWING!!! And I went outside And I took pictures Just to take it all in Because it’s snowing If I could have I would’ve made a snowman Would’ve made snow angels Because it’s snowing I can be such a cynic So blasé about things But today was different Because today—it SNOWED!!! 1/27/08

Beautiful prose Marilyn, I am happy for you that it snowed today, for now you can never again say, 'It never snows where I live'. Brilliant! Bravo!!!!!

Yesterday was nice and sunny. This morning I got up and there's about five inches of snow. Yikes! I'm glad you got snow. Yay! :) Nice writing!

I really must go, Baby it's cold outside, I really must go.... A most revealing catharsis delivered in your narrative.

thanks so much for sharing your thoughts, isnt it amazing when something so insignificant as "snow" can have such an impact and some how "right size" us?

I LOVE THIS, and I missed it...but ah...I saw (and read) it now. I love the written account, the cadence of it is wonderful, and the closing stanza strikes me like classic Japanese Haiku, which has a completely different form, but the same overall emotional impact. Fantastic work all around, and yeah, I generally avoid making snow angels as well...only because in my winter wear, my coat keeps me warm and dry, but once I'm back indoors, I realize that the backs of my pants are wet from melted snow. But ah...snow IS pretty when it first falls, though being from Chicago, I always dread shoveling it.
