Happy Groundhog Day!

Well, howdy Webkinz! It’s my very favorite day of the year – Groundhog Day! Why is that? Because….I’m a Groundhog! And as a Groundhog, I think it’s only fitting that I teach you my very favorite poem. In fact, I wrote it! It’s called: “My Shadow.”

February second is Groundhog Day,
And something happens, so they say.
Everyone comes and stands together,
So a Groundhog may predict the weather!
If the sky is cloudy or filled with rain,
The answer, then, will be quite plain,
If a groundhog’s shadow cannot be seen,
Then soon the grass will be warm and green.
BUT…
If the sun is in the sky,
And his shadow he can spy,
He’ll wrinkle his nose and puff his cheeks,
‘Cause winter will last SIX MORE WEEKS!

Did the Groundhog in your area see its shadow today? How much more winter do you have before spring arrives?

    I like the poem… who wrote that? It’s really cool. I live in South Dakota, so winter is probably going to last 6 more weeks. that doesn’t matter to me though, because i love winter. My birtyday’s in winter, so I really love it! I also love it, because it’s so pretty out when it’s winter! Someone in my neighborhood has the same name as me, and was born on the same day as me, just a few years after me though, and her name is spelled differently. I think it’s really cool though, because we’re the same height. I know, it may seem wierd, she’s youger than me, but she’s as tall as me, BUT I DON”T CARE! :) I’m fun-sized (short)!

    spring is coming he didn’t see his shadow, the sun was high when the clouds were low. i was so happy that spring would be here,if spring was around the corner,it would be near.i am so glad that winter is over, and i’ll get more lucky if in march i find a 4 leaf clover. all i am saying is that i am thankful, that the groundhog didn’t see is shadow and wasn’t frightful!

    only 2 more weeks till spring YAY!!!!!!!!!

    Nickie is not really my name. They do not let you tipe your real name if it is already “Taken”! my real name is Mackenzie. I answer ILoveEpicMickey by saying I hate spring!!!! It is drizzly and nasty and I wish there was not a spring. The only good thing about spring is that there are all kinds of new baby animals! I LOOOOOVVVVEEE winter! It is a blast! You can ski and ice-skate and snowmobile! Well just wanted to add my 2-pence! Bye! I love the groundhog poem. It is cute…for 4-year-olds!
