Frosty the Snowman took a hike Fell over some kid’s ten-speed bike Rammed his carrot nose in the ground Two coal eyes were all they found. written December 21, 2021 [originally written for Tania Kitchin's funny 4-liner contest]

I thought coal was a no-no, or did this happen on Senator Joe Manchin's front lawn?

It could have, Rico. (chuckling) Just the eyes, you understand, cause they don't melt!

Was no mention of that in the newspaper article, Mark. Also, didn't mention his scarf. But, you know how those reporters can be!
