A December Memento

at first fall of snow
on rustic bench we sat by 
watching snowflakes dance ~
under your old umbrella 
young dreams we shaped in snowballs

I love that last line; it has childhood hopes and playfulness to it.

Young days are reserved for dreams ! In snow fall under an umbrella, it is exciting to be with company, dreaming away. Sweet memories.
