A Collection of Weather Poems (ones with KWS were written at the Kennedy Weather Service) Winter Day The slate morning sky Offers an invitation The is unwelcome — KWS Haiku poem Snowfall White puffs Winds huff Falls down Covers ground Down it creeps Then piles deep Blizzard fury Region buried Such cloudy days Bring snowy craze — KWS List poem Rainy Day There once was a rainy day In the blustery month of May It rained, it poured As the winds soared Until the sun chased the rain away. — KWS Rainy Day Limerick WIND Worming, wavering, whirling fast In the face comes this precipitous blast Northerly, southerly, easterly, or west Dancing about, nature's true test! — KWS acrostic poem Rainbow A bend of light Color in the air Breaking storm clouds Here and there Seen as a bend Of unwavering light From the storm's Sudden flight Yellow and red And orange, too Green and purple, Indigo and blue The rainbow is Nature's great gift Declaring an end To a stormy rift — KWS poem Snow Day Snow falls down in puffs of white Much to excited children's delight. It falls down onto the ground. Enveloping all that it surrounds. It builds and builds as fast it falls creating snow drifts and snow walls. If it is heavy enough it really just may, create a surprise Snow Day! — KWS Poem Snowflake Snowflake falling down Gently through the air Leaves its cloudy home On a wintry dare Floats down through the sky Blowing here or there As it swiftly sails Without the slightest care A snowflake moves around Causing passerbys to stare Wondering if more will come And disrupt their cozy lair — KWS Poem Fall is in the Air A chill breeze nips the nose A puff of breath lingers with a flair A crackle of leaves crunches on the ground. Fall is in the air A wind ripples briskly by A spot of dew stuns a silent hare A gaggle of geese fly on moonlight's wing Fall is in the air A few flecks of frost stain the window A warm day becomes quite rare A flock of football faithful sip their coffee Fall is in the air — a KWS poem |
