Snow is a thick white blanket
Upon which the world....
sleeps
Cold, colourless stuff that
falls
in
flakes
Soft and sleepy snow
Sometimes falls fast...
sometimes slow
It falls in sheets
Like a curtain being drawn
It drifts across the sky
Blocking out the light
It falls so quietly
Flakes floating in the night
Brightening up the sky
With a great white light
Falling
Falling
Freezing droplets of ice
Crisp snowballs, frosty snowmen
Oh, isn't snow nice!

Love this frosty work in the grip of Summer! Gives me something to look forward to. I enjoyed your playfulness with "floating" and "droplets".
Thanks Heather T. It would be nice to have a real proper snowy day this Winter. Our Summer hasn't been that good so far though, more like Autumn, so Winter doesn't seem too far away.
Bibbeck, I used to live in Montreal. Love to look at snow, but believe me, Hawaii is better!
Love your poem though!
Much as having good weather is great for getting out to do things, I like the seasonal changes. I may have visited Montreal many years ago - I went skiing at Mont Tremblant; although my first time, it was the BEST! Thanks for your appreciative comment.
Growing up in Switzerland I skied the alps, so the first time I went to Mont Tremblant it seemed like just a little hill! 🙂 But it was still better than not skiing at all!
Brrrrr is right. But, it is hot and humid here so this is a refreshing read.
WBL, glad to give you a bit of refreshment in your 'muggy' day.
Good write but as far as I am concerned snow is best seen in pictures.
GF it does look glorious in pictures, in its perfect state of rest and fluffiness. It's nice out in it if you're wrapped up warm too. Much more comfortable though in written words. 😉
Love the poem ! Being from
Derbyshire I can relate to this’s much.
Thx for your appreciation, Grange. I bet you got plenty recently in the 'Beast'.
