Snowflakes float gently downward, and slowly paint Winnipeg white
Now, we wear boots and coats, and we miss July, August, and sweat
Yes, we knew this would happen, and every year, people survive
We persist; we prepare for the months ahead, stoic and brave
Armed with scarves, earmuffs, and thick thermal socks
Let us now tackle the fierce freezing winds
Pavement-gray sky, we wait for the sun to come back with the heat
Snowflakes float gently downward, and slowly paint Winnipeg white
cold,
winter,
seasons,
daily life,
weather,
ice
