Hi Linda! It never snows in Malta; the only times I saw real snow was when I went on the Alps. [did I see a blog of yours yesterday? or was I dreaming, cos I can't find it today!!] hugs ~~ paul

Congratulations on your win, Paul! I thought this was a cute endearing poem. When I went backpacking in Cascade, the snow would swallow my entire leg! Didn't have sleighs with us unfortunately ... Had to keep trekking along, regardless ...
