The Most Wander-ful Snowflake!
by Christy Weisiger
A winter storm!, the forecast teased.
The girl looked up and sighed.
She couldn't spot a single flake
no matter how she tried.
A crystal formed within the clouds--
the falling snowflake grew.
It wandered toward the waiting girl
as if, somehow, it knew…
She stomped her feet and pumped her arms.
She snow-danced till she dropped.
She raised her face and scanned the skies…
A snowflake! Her eyes POPPED!
The flurry found the girl! She cheered
and bolted to her feet.
She caught the snowflake on her tongue--
its journey was complete.
Happy Snow Day, Virginia!
