Karen Jones Poet Rhyme

Notes About The Poem

For contest sponsored by Mistic Rose Rose written November 24, 2025

Snow Globe Memories

Homemade ice cream made from snow
As white as the flakes in a snow globe
Tastes so good despite the cold
Chilling our lips tongue and nose

Grinning not always winning snowball fights
Dressed for warmth not wanting to go inside
Our weenie dog Jhat short only so high
Snow covered fur all up to his eyes

Playing with neighbors kids from the block
Having energy that seems never to stop
Watching dad shovel snow from the driveway 
He never seems to mind that all we do is play 

Snowflakes fall in a pattern of their own
Painting us all as we sing sleigh songs
The beauty of the snow painting from clouds
We will always remember it as if it is now

John Loving Iii December 2, 2025 at 11:58 AM It's nice when someone takes the time to make poetry rhyme. I'm far from the snow where I am now but those memories are all mine. I'm at the age when in summer we'd pushed around a lawnmower to make money. And carry a shovel When It snowed. Karen Jones December 2, 2025 at 2:15 PM I remember that! We use to rake leaves and pick weeds out the vegetable garden too! Thanks for sharing John hugs.
