my snow people broach

One of my favorite Christmas presents was a broach
Made of two glittered snow people – a man and a woman
They were holding tiny pink and red shiny glass ornaments
I wore it for a week after Christmas until it fell off
On the block between my house and school.
I was heartbroken, because I never found it.
That was sixty-four years ago, and I still remember my sadness.
A gift from my Aunt Marjorie who probably never knew how much I loved it.
