Kai Michael Neumann Poet Free verse

Snowballs Melting Fast

Yesteryear’s child rolled in the snow all flakes blazing in frosted happy crystals
Broke through ice on winter scape lakes and warmed with steaming chocolate
Roasted chestnuts on sticks in the fireplace thawed glowed marvelling joy
Hot molten marshmallows mellowed frost bitten hands soothed adventurous soul
Winters were glorious with immaculate seasons greeting revolving excitement

Nostalgia romantic reminiscence foresight or withering delight’s sadness
Miraculous icicles descending dripping noses silently disappeared
Memories evaporated forgotten glaciers relinquished destroyed
Ravishing blistering heatwaves desertification thirstiness
Aggrandised humanity's perverted ‘advancement’
Tsunamis hell frozen

Conscience obliterated
Snowballs
