snow day

snow flutters down
bit by bit
an ever-present veil of white
it's a comforting sight
after a dark, cold night
there are people laughing on every street
tearing through mother nature's blanket
they're tying random objects to the back of truck to sled down the road
their hands are cold, their hearts warm
life has been put on hold
to celebrate the friendly cold
we all take a breath
bit by bit
the snow keeps fluttering down

Hey y'all! This is my first post in this community — I'm excited to share my writing and explore the work of others. :)
