To a Snowflake:

Hello little snowflake!
Where are all your friends?
Should I expect a lot of them
before the morning ends?

I love it when you come to me
and you all fall down together,
and I get dressed to visit you,
toasty warm in cold, cold weather.

It’s fun the way you all pile up
outside, in my back yard,
and I can roll you in a ball
to make a snowman, it’s not hard!

Or maybe, I will build a fort!
All my friends will come and play,
and if you plan to stay awhile,
we will come out every day.

Sometimes I make snow angels,
and their legs and arms look puffy,
but I can only do that
if you come down light and fluffy.

Could I ask you guys a favor?
White is fine, but nothing’s duller ...
Could you all do one thing, just for me?
Come down in LOTS of colors!
