and then looking down

on the dark dreary space,

the lovely flakes said,

" but in such a big place,

why, whatever could one

tiny snowflake do?

such a wee little

delicate bit like you,

you just wait half a minute

and we'll go to !"

so they hurried, and skurried,

and flew around,

and told every snowflake

that could be found;

they waltzed 'round in circles,

they danced on tip toe,

they could not hold still

getting ready to go.
