A Snowy Day

I can recall it snowed one night, And everywhere was soft and white. I built a snowman - what a fright! Misshapen, he was hardly right; His face was like he’d lost a fight. Although back then, filled with delight, I thought he was a splendid sight.

I still love snowy days Jack and I love your nostalgic poem about your wonderful, home-made, misshapen, look-like-he'd-lost-a-fight, memorable and splendid snowman. A lovely sight my imagination conjures up from the pure enchanting magic of your words. A beautiful poem that brings back many memories for me as well. Warmest wishes. ~Susan

At least you have a memory of building one snowman! In my mind I can see your misshapen snowman, and it makes a cute picture! The poem is lovely...it flows and the rhyme is excellent. #7 // paul
