Rain, rain go away
The snow is here again today
Coming down like twinkling embers
Moving toward a white December

Blanket the ground
With your soft subtle flurries
Freeze the roads over
For people who are in hurries

Dancing flames keep us warm
Inside a shelter in our home
Shielded from the frigid cold
To the air my heart is sold

I really like this, the idea of this, but some of it sound childish, like the second stanza. Good job though! I think you could improve it
