We’ve been snowed under here in my area of Massachusetts. In the past couple of weeks, we have gotten around five feet of snow. Meteorologists are predicting another storm on Thursday. I’m sure this will be one of our snowiest winters on record. The winter of 2010-2011 was pretty bad too. I was housebound for a time during  that snow-filled season. One thing that kept me occupied was writing children’s poems about snow, winter weather, and icicles. This morning, I thought I’d post a couple of those poems–as well as a few photos that I took from inside my house.

It’s Snowing Again!
By Elaine Magliaro

It’s snowing again.
It’s blowing again.
It’s snowing and blowing.
The traffic is slowing.
The drifts keep on growing and growing and GROWING.
It just keeps on snowing
and snowing and snowing.
I don’t think it’s
EVER
going
to end.

It Snowed and Snowed
By Elaine Magliaro

It snowed all day.
It snowed all night.
It snowed and snowed.
Two feet of white
covered everything in sight.
Our yard,
our deck,
our walk,
the road
don’t look the same
because it snowed…
and snowed
and snowed
and snowed
and snowed.
I dress up in my winter wear
and step out in the frosty air.
I look around and what I see
is a marshmallow world
waiting for me!
