第二次下雪

second snow

it is the second snow this year
and everybody comes to play
it will be dirty in a day
and then my daughter comes around
the snow is black around the trees
along the road. she stomps the snow
until she sees the white appear.

she looks for snow when it's all gone.
it was the second or the third.
now you can walk on lakes and moats
and if there is another snow
i hope we make a snowman then
it will be gone before we know.
