"A Snowy December"


I have a fear.
The fear to drive in the snow,
But today I had work
And I needed to go.

I asked for a ride,
But no one replied.
I laughed to myself and said
"I hope I survive."

I turned on the heat
And wiped the car clean.
Let the journey begin.
I reverse onto the street.

What really frightened me
Was coming to a turn,
And the first turn I took
I felt my car swerve.

My stomach felt sick,
But I realized I'm fine.
I drove in the snow,
And got to work on time.

I was happy to finally
overcome my fear,
But I pray for no more snow
For the rest of the year.
