The first Snow

Heidrun Paula Emma Kordholste-Nikander

Snowflakes like cotton balls
Are slowly falling down
Covering fence and walls
Pines are getting a crown
Under the weight of the snow
The branches are bending
Getting down very low
Snow falls without ending
A squirrel runs on the fence
Slides bur doesn't fall down
Snowflakes are getting dense
Gone is all that what was brown
And the kids are delighted
