"The Snow" 
​By: Katherine Quinn '20

They loved the snow
That shone so bright,
But it washed away
Throughout the night.
The puddles grew
It flood til dawn
The snowmen fled
The angle’s gone
The sleds had no purpose
The snow coats were hung
Snow boots were empty
And no snowballs were flung
The children sat idle
They all felt so blue
What to do without snow!
They hadn’t clue.
More rain was predicated
But the children said “no!”
So they prayed and they prayed
“Turn that rain into snow!”
The next morning was joyful
And all the children looked spry
Because the white, sparkling snowflakes
Started falling from the sky
All the children geared up
And went out to play,
What a wonderful start
To a great Christmas Day!
