Impromptu

the snow
people saw
the sun
for the first time

the pipe dropped
from her mouth
the carrot dropped
from him

their feelings
weren't tears
they were deeply
felt not knowing

what had
moved them so
was to
melt

Snowman are like love, once the season is gone, it's gone but will rise again. Stay frosty my friend.

No one, except you of course, seems to get the pipe and carrot reference. I freely thought of it while bringing back childhood childish memories jajaja.

Thanks Maureen. I don't know why I'm thinking snow. I want to garden. How's the weather way up north?
