Jack Frost Howler

How the igloo spectators did laugh
as I spun like some frozen giraffe
black ice caught me napping
jack frost “boo-boo” snapping 
this whirligig skater a fly-half!

Date created : 3rd January 2021

Contest : Winter Snow or Ice Limerick

Sponsor : Tania Kitchin

NB Jack Frost snapping as in taking a photograph when I cut a funny figure while trying to skate.
Fly-half in comic sense. Slipping and falling in comic rugby player mode
Whirligig comic weather-vane
