Never Ending Shoveling Routine
One, ..two, ..three
Keep digging
Keep digging
Cold, it’s chilling
Shovel in my hands
Thick shawl around my neck
I keep digging, shoveling
the touch of snowman on my way
Four, .. five ... six
Keep digging
Keep digging
The ice crystal won’t stop falling!
Lift up a kilo,
It brings down again a ton
But I also won’t stop
With a shovel in my hands
and thick jacket zipped up
I keep digging, shoveling
the cloud shapes on my flat
Seven... eight... nine..
Keep digging...
Keep counting
How many times have I shoveled?
It just won’t stop falling
Ten I’ve counted
then back to one I go
And I’ll keep shoveling
for another hundreds of ten lifting up
On the roof of my house,
I am now digging,
shoveling,
the white things under
which have covered the town
...anyone can help?

White wisping willow snow,
where will your tendrils fall?
I can grip the shovel now
and head out on this call...
the Winter's
by Scott Scherr
I bought a brand new shovel
Open season’s just begun.
My friends think I’ve gone crazy
Since I hunt without a
Shoveling snow is not for the faint of heart
Nor for those with bodies about to fall apart.
I don’t like shoveling,
Snow gently falls as I rise for a shoveling task to do
Falling like rain with breeze pushing in the shadow
It follows me even
