Here is a poem by Shawnda Elliott
entitled "The Night It Snowed"
When I woke up in the morning,
I was surprised to find,
Some snow on the ground.
The trees were all covered with
snow,
Then the wind gave a blow
And there was no snow.
Then I went to bed.
Then I dreamed what I had said,
That was a good day
When I went out to play.
