Snowman

That ugly man is thrusting his mom back and forth Mama is panting high and low her eyes float on filmy watery slides Is she crying in pain or joy? but fear makes her son coy It's suffocating inside the house outside, it's is a cold winter burdened by pale white ice The boy doesn't care his tiny cat even disappears He flings open the door gusty wind blows his hat down on the snowy floor The snowman is still standing , breathing in cold air smiling, and with his carrot nose sniffs boy's despair Happiness returns, the boy grins his father faded face sadly shines he hugs the snowman and tears he mumbles and murmurs If you can, please linger for few more months hey dear winter.
