"Don't tell me the sky is the limit when there are footprints on the moon"

Rain cleans the mountains like a new white board
They turn so green and camouflage the trees
I would look at them all day and not be bored
With my hair gently swaying in the breeze

Sunshine is bright and lovely in the sky
Sun is good for playing at the park
Picking flowers outside no more goodbye
I hope it never ever will get dark

Snow gives the chance for creativity
Remember not to eat the yellow kind
Loving the snow angel you made for me
Attack with snow ball fights from the behind

My home has mountains, oceans, and some trees
I love all the possibilities

The author's comments:
I wrote this in my English class and was inspired by all the mystic climates in our world. I find all the different types of weather so magical with endless possibilities. I hope young people will sense the playful tone in my poem but also realize the importance of appreciating the surroundings of mother earth.
