Magic white powder fills people with joy
Spreading a smile to each girl and boy
Brings back childhoodâs wanted bliss
Something that people know and grow to miss
Folks get ready for a day of fun
Children go outside to play and run
Seeing the magic of the flakes
Brings people back to a long lost place
A time of joy, fun, and laughter
There but lost thereafter
When people gathered together as one
And wondered at the snow until it was none
One day of magic breaks the ice
Everyone together, a roll of the dice
Fires lit burn with unity and cinders
Melting the hard and ice cold winter
Once upon a snowy January day
