Snowflakes swirl of white in different shapes round and round full of spirit they can’t escape falling, falling from the blue vault of heaven draping the cold ground Everything vanishing in white never fearing twinkling, blinking, and sparkling clinging and hugging the trees so dearest Our eyes light up smiles spread over our faces Mum helps to bundle us up warm from head to toe so we won’t get numb playing in the snow Bentley barks, spinning around wagging his tail delighted to join us Soft snowflakes kiss our faces oh so gently as we lie on the fluffy snow flapping our legs and arms like wings while Bentley runs around ebulliently licking our faces Springing up to our feet, throwing snowballs intently Roll and roll as much as we can of the snow stacking three –high building our snowman Big and small black buttons For a mouth, eyes, and its tummy, a small rose plum it looks so dumb for a nose “Oh so funny!” Holly pinned to a felt black top hat for his head Bentley tugs to tighten a red woolen scarf around his neck Oh what a delight Mr. Red Cardinal decides to alight on Mr. Snowman’s holly to peck on the red berries

Hi Eve, I really enjoyed this Christmas poem.The closest I've gotten to a "Snowman " was watching "Frosty The Snowman "on tv as a kid. It's a dream to actually build. You expressed that feeling very well in this piece. A without a doubt seven:-) Alexis

Thank you, Alexis, snow is so wonderful, but wear your sunglasses it can also be blinding to much white that really shimmers ... Hugs
