DEFINING SNOW

DEFINING SNOW

Are ye the ghosts of fallen leaves, O flakes of snow, For which, through naked trees, the winds A-mourning go?  John B. Tabb



Floating about social media is a photograph of President Trump, 3/4 figure, sporting one of his signature red 'Make America Great Again' ball caps. Smiling, arms aside and extended slightly forward offering palms up, is our President. 

Someone cleverly captioned: Good Morning Snowflakes! What Are We Offended By Today?

And that wonderful image sparked the idea for some snow definitions ...

Snowflakes: The irrationally upset, bitter, hostile, and downright antagonistic as to election results. 

Snowstorm: Result of a lost election - a blizzard of snowflakes.

Snowball: Formal social attended by snowflakes.

Snowboard: Directors of snowflakes.

Snowbound: Snowed in with no place to go. 

Snowfall: Ongoing post-election antics of snowflakes.

Snowman: No! Snow child. A man is not snow. 

Snowdrift: Aimless crowd of snowflakes.

Snow pile: Stationary snowflakes.

Snow shovel: Used to remove small crowds of snowflakes.

Snowplow: Used to disperse large crowds of snowflakes.

Snowshoe: Comes in a rainbow of colors.

Snowy: Noise; white or not. Static. 

Snow forecast ...

Blizzard tapering to lingering flurries.

Mourning broken. 

Sunny mornings, Spring, and budding trees ahead!

Alas ...

Snowden: Traitor.
