Over the snowy weekend, it was spent outside in the snow. There was heavy snowfall throughout the weekend, causing chaos around Metro Vancouver. The 14-year-old boy stayed home, avoiding the heavy traffic jams and worked on clearing the driveway of recent snowfalls.
As temperatures dropped Friday overnight, it created optimum conditions for playing in the snow. Jon took full advantage of the weather and spent the entire day outdoors creating structures made of snow and an assortment of activities that haven’t been done since the last major snowfall in the winter of 2008.
Jon ended the eventful weekend by rushing to finish the homework that had been left ignored for the entire weekend then prepared himself for another week of regular schedule.
Poem
A frigid weekend, too cold for many.
That was, except for one.
Running and shivering
In the white snow
The boy was anything other than mellow.
Freezing his toes
In the white snow
He was quick
He was playful
He was productive in the powder.
As the day went on
He only got prouder.
His snow structures were enormous
They were as wide as a car,
As tall as a bear
He just continued to played with no care.
As the sun began fainting,
Frozen as an ice cube
Began running back home
Following the scent of the carefully cooked dinner.
