Lazy Snow

Lazy Snow

We peer from behind our window blinds
Lazy snow falling soft and slow
Like individual exquisite works of design
Just when we thought it was safe to forecast
The days are stretching
It nearly spring
Lazy snow soft and slow
Like small individual exquisite works of design
Bites us on the ass
And smiles
A wee present of snow and slippery ice
To let the child in you escape
Embrace the memories of the times
With socks for gloves
And feet like blocks of ice you dragged the sledge
Over the glittering ground
And fought your fear as you took your turn
