Winter is the king of showmen, Turning tree stumps into snowmen And houses into birthday cakes And spreading sugar over lakes. Smooth and clean and frosty white, The world looks good enough to bite. Thatโs the season to be young, Catching snowflakes on your tongue. Snow is snowy when itโs snowing, Iโm sorry itโs slushy when itโs going.
Ogden NashNo matter how deep and dark your pit, how dank your shroud, their heads are heroically unbloody and unbowed.
Ogden NashThere has been a lot of progress during my lifetime, but I'm afraid it's heading in the wrong direction.
