Snow

She shivered. Her clothes fit only for sunshine.

‘It shouldn’t be cold here.’

But it was and it would be, forever and ever.

Amen, the clouds thundered silently in the fungus-coloured sky, and the first heavy flakes fell, big, white and sloppy, millions upon millions of them. She lay down in the whiteness, eyes closed, spread-eagled. The last snow angel.

When I awoke this morning,

I saw snow out today.

It's blocking the road

And clogs up the pathways.

But snow isn't all bad,

It's good for cold play,

Like snowshoeing and skiing,

So I guess snow's okay.

But I long for the days

Of warm sunshine and hay,

So for now you are welcome,

But please, snow, don't stay.
