Snow

You come down from the sky,

In the cold winter time;

I love to watch you with my own eyes,

Feeling the soft snow flakes drop on me.

I do not live in a very cold town,

Very seldom to see you around;

I know you always flaking down,

softly covering up the ground.

The soft layer you made,

is quickly melted away;

If you do not fade,

a longer time you may stay.

I remember long time ago,

Visiting downtown Toronto;

The temperature was not that cold,

suddenly dropped a light snow.

This was the first time I saw snowfall,

The feeling was great and romantic;

Children love to make you into a ball,

Throwing for fun is really fantastic!

Too much of you is a worry,

Routine activity may be affected;

Such a situation is not funny,

Snowfall forecast should not be neglected.

Once a while seeing you is wonderful,      

The white fluffy blanket you formed,

Looks clean, fresh and beautiful,

But please do not come in a storm!
