Add Carrots and Coal

Celebrate the weather

It’s cold enough to snow

Layers beginning to grow

Ground colored white

So bored inside the house

The kids stare longingly

At where they want to be

Dancing with flakes

Grabbing their boots and gloves

They head for the backyard

Hoping it will snow hard

More to enjoy

omelet ’em

Fry eggs on the sidewalk

Yes, it’s sure hot enough

But who would do that stuff

Kids will be kids

girlie girl

She has more ribbons

Then she can possibly wear

In her own long hair

So, she dresses up her dolls

Then goes looking for the cat
