I stare out the window,
On a cold winter day.
Watching little specks of snow,
Float on the ground to stay.

The smell of crisp winter air,
Fills the sky around.
The snow's layer doesn't share.
A blade of grass can't be found.

Calming silence fills my ears,
Peace is all around.
The only thing I can hear,
Is snow falling to the ground.

This is a very peaceful poem. Remember these sensations now so when you are an adult, you can look back at it and smile.
