Analysis of Image Poem
Nate Cooper 2006 (Missouri)
Alarm goes off and you I shoot up
Open the curtains and see the frost built up on the window
Walk outside, feeling the chillingly sharp breeze hit my warm skin
The layer of warmth protecting me is gone
My socks are wet, I look down and their covered in snow
My mom walks out and tells me that there's no school today
The roads are covered in an icy glaze
I run back inside and cover myself in warmth,
Make a hot chocolate with marshmallows rising to the top of the mug
Today I will do absolutely nothing, because today is a snow day
