The First Snow Fell {the First Noel}

The first snow fell all angelic and white We built us a fort full of snowballs to fight The mailman rounded the corner much to his surprise Two big fat snowballs dotted both of his eyes The policeman was summoned all dressed up in blue We got scared and decided we should just snowball him too His face was beat red as he filed his report Stomping all our snowballs and tearing down our fort Then he led us back home had us each by the ear Where up on the porch sat uncle Joe with a beer The policeman told Uncle Joe he would lock us away Uncle Joe stepped off the porch and made night of his day Now here we sit in juvy and uncle Joe he is in jail I reckon I’ll write Santa ask if he can post our bail Or maybe send his reindeer to crash right through the roof So we could fly up out of here, upon the golden hoof If another snow falls all angelic and white I’ll build me a snowman but l won't snowball fight I can't seem to bring the contest up so I hope I did this right. This carol is done to the beat of "The First Noel"

You've got me chuckling with this one. Enjoyed it. Good luck in the contest. Thank you for your concern regarding my haiku--healed... It isn't about me but born of my years working with the abused. Blessings to you. Karen

Good write, Mike. I can't get into the contests either. Have asked for help, but nothing happens. Evidently the powers that be are just too busy. Love, daver

Michael this is too cute, I can see it all taking place, and what a sight....I have my son's books you sent, and we can see him Christmas. He called last night, and said he loves it there. He is working at a salvage yard in the daytime, and studying at night...he is in charge of all the church rallys, and he said his attitude is happy...God is so good...I am going to do a book of poetry, and donate all the proceeds to the organization where my son is....some can't afford rehab.....FF, Christy

This is so cute Michael. I have had the privilege of being in snow only twice:( and this makes me a lot envious of you:) Lovely fun filled write. Love to you and yours, Chitra (p.s tell me Michael, does Santa exist, I mean for real. I'm still so confused about it...lol)

Ha ha! You are bringing me back to winter childhood memories. Even though I always lost, as my big brother was merciless and had a grand finale of bombarding me, I still always had a blast. You did a great job here Michael. Good luck! And as far a your last comment goes, YAY about your new house! You and your family please have a beautiful holiday, you have so much to celebrate and be thankful for. Love you too right back. Love, Shar xoxo
