If you’re feeling overwhelmed

By a foot of snow at your feet

Put it all in perspective

And breathe in deep

Let your breath go

Let it rise to the sky

A blanket of snow awaits

It’s begging you to try

To be a kid again

Who wears mittens, who sleds

Who sees a pile of snow

As a fluffy bed

Who gladly lays down

To give snow angels their wings

Who visits with nostalgia

And the memories it brings

A wild sense of wonder

Joy in simple things
