A snowfall can be wondrous and a joy to behold
Or a cause of great problems even leading to death
When it’s light and without wind most will enjoy this
But when it’s heavy and raging we’ll try to avoid it

During a light falling snow we’ll seek pleasure within it
The tranquility of a walk then is good for the soul
With the light falling flakes covering all things
It’s like exploring a peaceful and magical kingdom

The freezing rains that occur can create so much beauty
But it is freezing rain and ice brings its dangers
Whether it’s light or is heavy we don’t like being in it
And it’s too slippery for safe travel whether by car or on foot

When nature is ice covered all things shine like great crystals
And when the sun strikes this wonder the glitter is dazzling
So when a light icing falls you better be quick to enjoy it
Because soon it will melt or be covered by snow

Whether it’s a light dusting of snow or a light freezing rain
The magic and wonders can be glorious and joyful
But watch for the dangers that come with the excesses
Never doubt natures powers to cause death and destroy
