A Snowy Week

Friday 18th

Snow is falling all around.
There’s no birds, no cars, no sound.
No dogs are barking, no caterwauling.
Just lots of snow falling, falling.

Dogs are sleeping on the couch.
Had their walk, their bone, their pouch.
They’ve been out sniffing, been a-peeping.
Now they’re softly sleeping, sleeping.

Trees are glistening with the snow.
Plants are gone, deep down, won’t grow.
The ground is freezing, birds are listening,
All is white and glistening, glistening.

Monday 21st

Snow is carpeting all around.
There’s hungry birds, few cars, soft sound.
Dogs are playing, cats we’re petting.
Still lots of snow carpeting, carpeting.

Dogs are looking from the couch.
Had their walk, too soon for their pouch.
They’ve been out romping, now I’m cooking,
and they’re standing looking, looking.

Trees are bending with the snow.
Plants emerging, struggling to grow.
The ground is softening, birds descending.
Roof is heavy and bending, bending.

Saturday 26th

Snow is thawing all around.
There’s lots of birds, and cars, and sound.
Dogs are watching, cats are clawing,
and lots of snow thawing, thawing.

Dogs are barking on the couch.
Had their walk, but want their pouch.
They’ve been out sniffing, been a-larking.
Now they’re restless, barking, barking.

Trees are dripping with melted snow.
Plants are green and trying to grow.
The ground is soggy, birds are skipping.
All is slush and dripping, dripping.
