In Which Carmen Prays for Snow and Writes Creepy Poetry

O Great and Powerful One,
Thou who art in direct control
of the eternally mysterious Canadian weather,
and those strange wet winds
that wander forth from the far reaches
of the Gulf of Mexico,
hear our plea today,
for Monday is the longest day of the week
and not a day on which school--
a dread task at its best--
is tolerable.
So, if it be in Thy Heart
please please please please
lead those who do your bidding here on Earth;
show them the light
show them the power and the glory, etc.,
and if it be in Thy Heart
to do these things,
have them also call a snow day.
Amen.

Ain't nothin' like covering all the bases. ;)
