The Weatherman Poem

“No School!” shouts the weatherman,
With the bright orange tie;
My ears perk up, why would he lie?
No school? We’ll see,
It’s important to me,
Weatherman, I hope you are right.
 
I watch and I wait,
With a grin on my face;
Who knows if it’ll snow?
Will it snow?
I don’t know.
Weatherman, will you be right?
 
Now hours have passed,
With no snow in sight;
It’s still so cold and so plain.
I stare out a lot,
And think gloomy thoughts.
Weatherman, I don’t think you are right.
 
It’s time for bed?
Oh no! Not just yet!
I haven’t seen if it’ll snow!
The man said it would,
It possibly could!
Ugh, weatherman, are you gonna be right?
 
It takes me,
A long time to sleep;
Peering out the window so often.
How could it not do,
What he said it would do?
Weatherman, are you ever right?
 
Well . . .
Now it is morning,
I jump out of bed;
Just in time to see the white stuff.
I race down to see,
“No School!” on TV.
Weatherman, I guess you were right!
