Snow Day! (Poem for kids)

-
Kids see the world as their playground. An adult may look at the falling snow and groan about how difficult it may be to traverse the slippery roads to get where we need to go. But to a kid, it transforms their own backyard into a magical place of new possibilities!

I hope you enjoy reading this poem together and go outside and enjoy the day no matter what kind of weather it is!

SNOW DAY
by Brandi Peterson
 


The snow is falling!
Winter is here!
I’ve been waiting for this all year.
Up the hillside we can run.
And sled back down. Oh! What fun!
We could build a snowman or a fort.
Or make up a snowy sport.
Today is going to be a perfect day!
Come on! Let’s go out and play!

Coming Back to My Senses

It all started... So, I am currently recovering from the "Rona" that plagued my home these past couple of weeks. I don't mind telling you that I was not vaccinated, even though that is going to invite a TON of backlash. But here's the thing, my symptoms were not too severe. I had a temperature of 99.5 for 24 hours, then I was sleepy and congested for a week and I lost my sense of taste and smell. (It's still gone.) My husband, on the other hand, is a government employee. He had no intention of getting vaccinated until he received a letter basically saying he can get the jab or lose his job.

He was the one who needed a week of breathing treatments and steroids and antibiotics to get well. I started feeling bad a few days after he did. Then our daughter got sick also.  No one in our house got s

To celebrate the autumnal equinox today, I have a new illustrated poem for you called "I Love Fall". Text I Love Fall by Brandi Peterson authorbrandipeterson.blogspot.com Whether you’re tall, Or whether you’re small, Everyone can appreciate the season of fall. The leaves change their lovely hues, As trees begin the season’s snooze. The squirrels scurry to collect their seeds, To store them up for winter feeds. The mums burst with blooms so bright, To paint the hillside, a dazzling sight! Momma makes some pumpkin pie. She loves fall, and so do I! If you enjoy my poems, you'll LOVE my book!
