Last night, and into this morning, it snowed
Big fluffy piles of snow to welcome Christmas week
So we mixed, and stirred and tasted life where it's warm
Found out shortening is not icing, even though it might look like it
That ground cloves, alone, will make your mouth taste funny
And flour is definitely not sugar when you scoop it out in handfuls to eat
There were lots of snuggles
and a few laughs at the ridiculousness that can be our children
but mostly, it was warm
