Smooth and clean and frosty white

From Winter Morning by Ogden Nash

Winter is the king of showmen,
Turning tree stumps into snow men,
And houses into birthday cakes,
And spreading sugar over lakes.

Smooth and clean and frosty white,
The world looks good enough to bite.
That's the season to be young
Catching snowflakes on your tongue.

Snow is snowy when it's snowing
I'm sorry it's slushy when it's going.
Such a delightful snowy scene. So picture book 'ish. And a lovely appropriate poem to accompany it.

@helenhall Thank you! It is so pretty right now, but I fear the ice and slush is on its way.

@cristinaledesma33 definitely the not so pretty bit. Best when the sun comes out and it clears quickly. Here's hoping.
