an inch of snow

the weather girl
on tv
is all excited about the possibility
of a snow
storm
this weekend.
she's hopping around
the set in front of
the big
map
and using her pointer,
indicating
the cold front moving in.
we haven't had
any snow for years she says,
clapping
her hands together.
lighting up
the screen
with her brilliant smile.
i've never seen
someone so excited about
an inch
of snow before.
i think she's from
Brazil, or Chile
or somewhere below
the line.
