Snowfall Dusting

This morning’s snowfall dusting 

Was a school-day-off surprise 

And so exciting watching through

My grandkids’ eager eyes.


So shortly after breakfast

When I went to feed the birds,

“I’m coming with you, Nana,”

Were not unexpected words.


There were snowballs, mini-snowmen

And new paths tramped in the white,

A half an hour’s frolic

To my granddaughter’s delight.


My grandson’s choice was waiting 

To go out mid-afternoon.

Alas, he should have joined us

At a time more opportune.


For the temps went up and naturally,

It’s melted all away.

I’m glad, at least, one grandchild

Had the chance for snowy play.
