Your poem goes well with the tune to Home on the Range. I especially like the part about the mailman not being able to reach the box. I'm surprised he was able to get down the road.

You did a good job of completing this challenge for the contest. Your words flow from one line to te next sending a message of the poem to the reader. Well done and your choice of words made me think of being stuck out in the snow trying to get somewhere. Good luck in the contest.

Hi Johngie thanks for sharing this grand little verse set to the tune of " home home on the range. " What a grand job you've done creating this cleverly worded verse about the snow. A touch of humor runs through the poem and gives it that little twist which makes it so delightful. I imagine many folk who deal with snow through winter could relate to your words. No snow where I live , but I've heard folks stories who do have to contend with snow and its pitfalls. Best of luck to you in the contest. cheers mel

A very satirical re-write about the agony of winter to the old tune of Home on the range. I enjoyed this very much as it helps to bring humor into a good poem.

Hmm, I think you did well with changing things up. You can still see the original within the lines so that is a good thing and your chosen snow day theme is good. Well done, and good luck.

I like the song and your interpretation of it. This is a song I grew up with and yes, when will Spting get here? Has it deserted us and overslept? Good luck in the contest and thank you for sharing.
