Perhaps earth will be lovingly kissed With snowfall at a time such as this To grace the holy day Jesus was laid in hay Our first and most blessed of Christmas gifts. A short lifespan, a joyful lifespan For Frosty the cold, winter showman With hat, scarf, pipe and gloves Provided with much love From children who adore a snowman. Slowly, sadly, snowman melts away To the sorrow of childhood at play Hopefully he'll be back Before winter has past And snowflakes come falling thick and fast.

Beryl, sounds like a lot of fun to build and a bit sad to watch the melting. It makes snowfall something special to play with. I remember how hard it was to place one large snowball on top of the other, but it was fun. Smiles!!

I hope Frosty comes back, but he never appears where I live in the greater Los Angeles area!
