Snow Day

Snow day, slow day.
Don’t-get-up-and-go day.

Snow day, slow day.
Leave-me-happily-alone-day.

Snow day, slow day.
Just-give-me-my-books day.

Snow day, slow day.
I-am-off-the-hook day.

Snow day, slow day.
Cozy-sleep-in-late day.

Snow day, slow day.
Breakfast-with-my-mate day.

Snow day, slow day.
Silent-as-a-mouse day.

Snow day, slow day.
Stay-inside-the-house day.

Snow day, slow day.
I’m-not-getting-up day.

Snow day, slow day.
More-coffee-in-my-cup day.

Snow day, slow day.
Snuggle-up-and-read day.

Snow day, slow day.
I-have-all-I-need day.
