- First Day In December -

I woke up this morning to a white glow Outside it has dropped a white blanket of snow I want to make a snowman named Joe He shall have a red hat on, he becomes easy to know It's cold and it's starting to blow I rush into my house, it's cold on my toe 01.12.2012 A-L Andresen :)

Hi, Anne-Lise. The first snow of the winter is always an exciting time. Brings out the child in us and the imagination. Very nice little poem my friend.... Robert.

A beautiful picture of a December morning. It doesn't snow here in the south of Portugal. But I can get a vivid picture of how a blanket of snow would be like as I have seen it happen in Zurich, Switzerland a few times. Thanks Anne for your appreciation of my Senryu The Flame. It is the first Senryu I have ever written. Your words are always encouraging. Love -Mohammad
