On Silver Breeze

On silver breeze my mind takes flight
     Toward winter thoughts of fancy
I fly with ease through frosty white
     And laugh so hard, I can’t see

In tinsel dreams, I reach my goal
     A candy caned, red hamlet
I think I found the old North Pole
     Though, I can’t see the sign yet

The sounds I hear confirm my thoughts
     As Ho Ho Ho’s surround me
My travels were not all for naught
     As what I see astounds me

Excitement brews as I begin
     To think of all the fun things
Alas, just then to my chagrin
     My history teacher’s bell rings

So back to work for now I go
     Hoping winter fun will keep
Perhaps, I’ll catch that breeze tonight
    All tucked into my bed, asleep
