It snowed. In fact, you brickophants are probably enjoying a snowday. Reading by the fire, drinking a nice warm cup of cocoa after this morning’s snowball fight. You’re probably curled up with your dog/cat/iguana/loved one with some lovely blankets, waxing about how life’s beauty is accented by a light coat of white. Or maybe discussing how temporal the world is as the snow quickly turns into mud.
Well, Brick Watch—unlike the construction workers—is at work today. And in honor of this special day, we will take time to join you in your snowy state of mind. In fact, BW can think of no one who would enjoy a snow day like our favorite German romantic poet. So in honor of Theodor Seuss Geisel’s birthday, the remainder of BW will be in verse today.
In a town, from here it’s not too far,
there fell a snow that stopped all cars.
This town had lovely bricks for walking,
and lovely bloggers who love the talking.
Brickville was the name of this town,
and snow days make many Brickfans frown.
For on this day of white and bright,
there was no construction within sight.
Oh, ho! This lovely snow,
it honors a man whom we all know.
But alas, no need to be obtuse,
Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss!
(To those of you who found this a-cute,
I think you can eat my boot.)
We the lords of Brickly town,
did score this video of bricks going down.
We worked on Sunday to bring this to you,
So please, please watch it, a time or two.
