Whitest Winter
Whitest Winter! Crisp, crisp, crisp.
Curiously quiet, snow-softened sounds.
Squeaky footsteps! Crunch, crunch, crunch.
Race up the hill, slip-slide sledge back down.
Mufflements! Snug, snug, snug.
Thawing out with sweet hot chocolate cups.
Curiously quiet, snow-softened sounds.
Squeaky footsteps! Crunch, crunch, crunch.
Race up the hill, slip-slide sledge back down.
Mufflements! Snug, snug, snug.
Thawing out with sweet hot chocolate cups.
