With every step, snow crunches underneath./
The bitter cold creeps onto me slowly./
Artificial birds sway upon a wreath./
Tattered ski pants; green as guacamole./
Whether trudging through the thick after-mass,/
or scraping the stubborn ice off the car,/
you frequently end up late for your class./
And when it's really bad, you can't see far./
Bundles up with blankets and hot cocoa,/
can make any snow day ten times better./
Children build Frosty with a large shadow./
When warming up, ice melts from their sweater./
It is winter again, as you can see,/
In little 'ole South Plainfield, New Jersey.

"You know you’re a writer if your friend tells you a heartbreaking story and your first reaction is – wow, that would make an incredible plot for a novel. You know you’re a smart writer if you manage to keep that reaction to yourself."

"Though much is taken, much abides; and though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield." -Lord Alfred Tennyson
