snow is great.

It hasn't stopped snowing
Since Friday.

I've already taken two walks in it.
One yesterday,
Another today.
It's so gorgeous,
Snow makes everything gorgeous.
Houses that looks so ordinary
Any other day
Really sparkle
When covered in snow.
It's freezing, sure,
But fun.
Simple fun,
Little kid fun.
Children like snow,
Because it's not another
Responsibility,
Not just something you
Have to shovel.
It's not a hassle.
It's new and cold,
And you can run down
The street through it,
Therefore it's great.

By just being there,
This snow has put me in the
Christmas spirit.
You know,
Prancing around, singing along
To my Sarah McLachlan
Christmas album
And happy music in general
And wearing a Santa hat
And watching my mom make
All this cookie dough
For when she feels like baking later.

I feel light and fluffy,
Like marshmallows and confetti.
I'm excited.
Four more days to go.
