Poetry is Power: Spring Snow

All the snow starts to melt,

Suddenly a big snowstorm comes through.

The warm weather is here,

But then the snow comes falling out of the sky,

Beautiful as always,

Sparkling and bright,

The spring snow comes through

Year after year,

Teasing us about spring really being here.

Apparently, too many athletes had fallen prey to freak injuries while skiing and cost the school state championships.  I had been involved with basketball since grade school, so I…
