“When I was younger, there was frozen rain.

We called it snow- it was quite magical.

It would coat the ground, turning the world white.

It was, for me, the mark of the winter.”

“The sunshine doesn’t allow for the snow.

It’s become too warm, since I was a kid.

I think you would like the snow. I miss it.”
