Snow And Tell

Now let me share my shivery story, With random revelations shed some light - Though I’m a dazzling glow but no glory, I’m much more than white mesmerising sight. I know around the globe I’m frowned upon, Shoved aside as a cold-blooded downfall. Frosty and I, my boon companion - Both ephemeral whims of Nature’s call. The poignant part that’s so freezin’ unfair, Snowbirds and geese leave sweet homeland behind, And what the hail, even a grizzly bear Under my frozen fist checks out to hide. I’m well aware that cars are going nuts, When on black ice wheels spin out of control, I’m traffic’s curse and drivers hate my guts - Apologies for my heavy downfall. Still silver lining’s part of every cloud - I’m not warm and affectionate as such, My visage after I’m shovelled and plowed Morphs into cool and captivating touch. Though I’m made up of many a snowflake - Floating frigid and fragile to adore, I swear and say for elves and Santa’s sake - There is white substance to my melting core. I’m seasonal and thus a treasured treat, I’m well equipped and sell extremely well: Without my gifts, apart from slush and sleet, Would be no sleighs, no skis, no NHL. I’m a commodity just so you know, When you can’t smell the roses, seize the snow! Let winter’s inhibition cover go - And Let it glow! Let it glow! Let it glow!
