Winter Wonderland
And when it fell on your tongue you’d feel it’s cold kiss
The merry sight of the frosty, sparkling white floating free
And here my child you will see, you’re as happy as can be
The swirling flakes dance around like many at a ball
And while the dance and twirl around slowly do they fall
They light the day with glaring bright as they smile through the day
And you my dear shall soon see why all must break away
For those that stay inside pouting, grumbling, and more
Get laughed at and poked at and called quite the bore
“So I shall stay inside today,” said no child ever
They go outside and play along with anyone whomsoever
They laugh and play and smile away while having fun in the snow
And as time goes on and the day ends away and the wind begins to blow
they’re called inside by their parents as the end of day has come
they eat their supper and drink their cocoa and munch on wild plums
for the end of the day has come already but no one is quite ready
to head to bed and close their eyes cause they can’t stay quite steady
for the snow is calling out to them and they want to play again
but their parents shoo them off to bed and the children groan in disdain
for night has come but the snow outside’s still falling
and tomorrow morning early and bright the children will go calling
for the friends to come on out and play once more in the snow
and the day repeats itself once again and how it ends, we all know.
