Description
It Never Snows At My House
It never snows at my house
That’s what I always tell people
It rains a LOT
But it never snows
And I don’t like snow, I say
It’s cold, it’s nasty
And I don’t like it
But today it snowed
And I got on the phone
And I called my son
Who LIVES in the snow
And told him it was snowing
I called my sister
I called my friend
Just to tell them
It’s SNOWING!!!
And I went outside
And I took pictures
Just to take it all in
Because it’s snowing
If I could have
I would’ve made a snowman
Would’ve made snow angels
Because it’s snowing
I can be such a cynic
So blasé about things
But today was different
Because today—it SNOWED!!!

lol cool writing :-) and a nice appropriate color tone graphic to match! Good week to you Marilyn :)
Beautiful prose Marilyn, I am happy for you that it snowed today, for now you can never again say, 'It never snows where I live'. Brilliant! Bravo!!!!!
Yea, hope you enjoyed yourself in the snow. Anytime you would like a bit more, Marilyn, let me know and I'll send you some...heehee! Nice prose and pic to go along with it.
Yesterday was nice and sunny. This morning I got up and there's about five inches of snow. Yikes! I'm glad you got snow. Yay! :) Nice writing!
I really must go, Baby it's cold outside, I really must go.... A most revealing catharsis delivered in your narrative.
wonderful writing. That like at my house it never snow too. wonderful
thanks so much for sharing your thoughts, isnt it amazing when something so insignificant as "snow" can have such an impact and some how "right size" us?
Aww, you didn't go and make Snow Angels?? Why Not?? They are SOOOOOO Much Fun, LOL!!! That is Fun to Watch someone else make, Huh?!?!?! What is that green thing the snow is on in the thumb? Gosh, I am Full of questions today!!!
I LOVE THIS, and I missed it...but ah...I saw (and read) it now. I love the written account, the cadence of it is wonderful, and the closing stanza strikes me like classic Japanese Haiku, which has a completely different form, but the same overall emotional impact. Fantastic work all around, and yeah, I generally avoid making snow angels as well...only because in my winter wear, my coat keeps me warm and dry, but once I'm back indoors, I realize that the backs of my pants are wet from melted snow. But ah...snow IS pretty when it first falls, though being from Chicago, I always dread shoveling it.
