Stuck In the Snow

I was snuggled 'tween the bosoms of my mother Stuck in the snow as the whirling wind blows Trapped inside the car, us...alone My mom's car would not start The battery died or it must have been frozen If I recall, I was just four years old I remember that day well...I was very cold The wrong day to shop- mother had chosen We were at our towns Mini-Mart We had no telephone Shivering still- she found a way to warm my toes Old socks, must have been left by my brother I knew mom would warm me...one way or another Wiping the boogers dripping from my nose My dad, worked late; asleep at home Never were they apart He was too tired to shop with us...I suppos'n It's been so long, since this story's been told A Little Memory -My Invented Form- Poetry Contest Sponsor: Constance La France 12-29-2020
