snow – Faking It Made

Day 102: “Manifesting Snow”

I used to sleep with a spoon under my pillow

To make it snow

That might sound crazy

But I read online that it would work

And I really didn’t want school the next day

Snow is magical

Watching the school districts scroll by on the TV

Sparta

Spokane

Strafford

Always the smaller districts close first

The hours tick by and I really should be in bed if there’s gonna be school tomorrow

So I take a spoon

And I think it had to be cold

So I put it in the freezer for a bit

Take it out

And put it under my pillow

I check the listings one more time

Still nothing

Then go to bed hoping, praying

I wake up late

Check the time

I’m gonna be late!

When my mom hears me up,

she comes in to tell me that she let me sleep in

because school is cancelled!

I rush out my door to peek out the back doors

There’s a blanket of snow covering everything,

And it’s still coming down

I jump and scream and laugh and smile

I love snow
