LAST NIGHT

It’s cold in here
And colder still,
Outside in the deep of night.
Snuggled down in flannel and quilts,
I’m sure I’m quite the sight!
The heat has been turned way down low,
I scoot further under and wish for snow.
But the stars are out and so’s the moon.
I guess no snow is coming soon.
For now I’ll have to dream of snow,
‘Cause I love the white and downy show.
