Notes About The Poem

Written - 2nd December 2025 - Snow Globe Memories 

 

 

My Snow Globe

I adore the snow globe from Santa Clause
Left in my stocking on the chimney wall
I love the snow storm made when it’s shaken
And the scene inside that does awaken.

There are skaters dancing on frozen ice
Wrapped up warm, having the time of their life
Church bells welcoming folk to come inside
To celebrate the wonders of Yuletide.

With each move I made, my snowglobe moved too
Without it I’d be sorrowful, It’s true
It has pride of place, on a shelf safe it’s sat
I shake it often, it brings that Christmas back.

My snow globe is made of plastic, not glass 
But is the nicest gift I ever had
Had it over seventy years in all 
Still my snow globe never fails to enthral.

I like your snow globe poem, Beryl. I still have one, not as old as yours, but equally proud of it for as you say, it "never fails to enthral"! ~ Best regards // paul

Thank you Paul, besides the snow globe that’s very old, we’ve acquired one that lights up and plays Christmas carols, yet the old one remains a favourite… Beryl
