Ornament Memories

I love decorating the Christmas tree
And lingering in ornament memories
A snowman I made
Back in 2nd grade
Reminds me of childhood glee and snow dreams

This is lovely, Susan. I used to have a tree-trimming party every year and each friend brought a home-made ornament. Now when I look at them, I always remember who made them. Finding an ornament you made in second grade must bring back wonderful memories. Very heartwarming poem! Love, Carolyn

You put a smile on my face on this one! Shucks, i don't think I kept mine though -- but the kids in school make those and they sure can be treasured keepsakes :D and thanks for your thoughts-- wow, that is another wonderful take on it-- I really like that-- like a lost memory, and also a reason for the blurriness... I'm honestly heartened by your insights, thank you, Susan :D
