To the Snow Angels

One snowy morning, I looked out

And what should I see

Snow Angels arrived just to help me

House bound and feeling low

I wasn’t about to shovel snow

But these jolly characters, four in number

Tackled that snow with vigorous plunder

They tossed it, they turned it and set it aside

Shoveled a path, the snow tried to hide

They cleared off the car, swept the steps down

All with a grin, never a frown

Tackled the ice, it couldn’t abide

Got the job done, with lots of pride

So to those Angels who came one cold winter day

And did a job, without any pay

I know snow shoveling is not all fun

But I thank you for a job well done
