PAPA'S TWINS.
The First Snow of 1920 Fall.
It drizzled rain all afternoon,
And some said it would snow right soon,
So down it came in flakes so small,
You'd scarcely see them as they'd fall.
They grew a little as they came,
And in a while they weren't the same,
As when they first began to fall,
When they were then so very small.
And now they're coming down like rain,
Your eyes you do not have to strain,
The ground will soon be snowy white,
It will be covered through the night.
