Teasing snowflakes

they seem to fall
teasingly
one little white flake
then another
later on another one
I ooh and aah
like a little girl
at the thought
of snow
soon deep enough
to play in

snow balls!
snow angels!
and
snowmen!

but no!
just tiny flakes
drifting past my window
all afternoon long
I am waiting
for the accumulation
like other places
seem to always get

I am jealous!

I love snow. It is very peaceful to watch it drift slowly. This is wonderful.

Ah yes, the snow often is so teasing. Giving one the excitement of the possibility of snow then taking it back again. A very enjoyable poem.

Come hang out in my town and you'll get lots of deep snow to play in! I enjoyed your poem.

Nice pen upon this. Snow is surely rare in some places, in Portland it was, we always hoped for snow, got it rarely. Snowball fights, snowmen and snow angels sounds fun, brings back memories of youth.
