SNOW

I absolutely love snow
There's something about it
The way it changes how everything looks
And somehow smooths the edges, makes everything look cute and happy and sparkly and clean

I remember in elementary school they would always make us write those fun little poems
Nowadays we only write essays (my transcendentalist essay was a pile of whale crap) and essays are not fun at all because really who cares about how much I fail at being Emerson? Exactly. No one.
So anyway I'm going to write a 2nd grade poem (I suck at poetry but it's still fun, even if I sound like a retarded 8 year old)

Soft fluffy blanket
Pure and white
Giving the world
A great big hug

YAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYY

I really wanted to just go and do a bellyflop into the snow this morning
But I decided that it wasn't worth catching pneumonia
So I put on a million layers of sweaters and a gigantic puffy jacket that electrocutes me and waterproof gloves that make my hands bigger than my head and waterproof snow boots and a hat so that my ears wouldn't fall off
And I drew a whale in the snow
And I helped shovel
Even though I hate shoveling because it ruins the beautiful continuity of glittering whiteness :(
Then I went inside
And I was all cold and my toes were tingling
Only to discover that WE DIDN'T HAVE ANY HOT CHOCOLATE
I was pretty devastated
Because hot chocolate is an integral part of my life
Not really
But sometimes when I'm really sad my sister makes me hot chocolate
I'm not sad though
Because it SNOWED
And snow makes me happy
So do whales and goats and chocolate and yarn and cookies and michael jackson and queen and singing and casting and sparkles and birthdays and happy endings <3
