What right have men to bundle Christmas snow
Who know full well their efforts end in death?
When up comes the sun, seen baking below,
A mis’rable puddle gasping for breath.
Where’s the compassion and holiday cheer
In stabbing an icon with carrot and stick?
Not only once but it’s year after year;
Truly, I tell you, they’ve gotta be sick.
And now this cartoon drawn mocking his fate!
Frosty, hang in there, we’re all on your side.
Tell greedy Fido his playtime can wait,
Arms aren’t attachments so easily pried. 
   Way beyond wrong, what these tormentors do -
   Someone, please help, call the ACLU!

How ironic you bring up the civil liberties union. Priceless humor, Phillip. LOL

I believe that's the first time I've ever made a non-demeaning reference to our friends at the ACLU. Maybe I'm getting soft as I approach middle age

I agree! We should start a petition on Frosty's behalf! Good luck in the contest :)
