FIRST SNOW

by Dawn Pisturino















The first white snow of winter
Falls softly on the ground;
The world looks like a fairy land
With snowflakes all around;
The trees dress up like fairies
Dancing on the snow: --
Magic happens everywhere
The fairies dance, you know.

I love the first white winter storm,
The air is cold and frosty;
I stay indoors where it is warm,
But through the windows I can see
How suddenly the world turns white
And disappears beneath the snow;
The season changes overnight
From autumn's bright to winter's glow.

1985

  1. I like this poem Dawn. I do like winter...the snow...just like this. Minus ice. This brings the good memories of snow fall!
