The Park Bench At Christmas

Sitting on the frigid feeble symmetrical snow * * * Watching snowflakes amidst the afterglow * * On a permafrost park bench we've come to know * * With hands, toes & bottoms benumbing below * * * * And the trees painted pearly wonderland white * * Upon reflections of Christmas coming ever bright * * * * Layered back with my red hat this wintery night * * Whishing the sun will sleep in before waking light * * * * Feeling like I’m sitting on a crispy comfy cloud * * * Where the branches display their beauty proud * * * * Hoping that the snowy streets not get plowed * * Wanting to scream Merry Christmas to all aloud. * * * * * * * Nov.17.2018 * * {_______} The Park Bench At Christmas ******** V V******** Sponsored by: Sara Kendrick ************************* Pic # 4 Placed 1'st...thank you ***************************************************************

Winged Warrior, the poem - gorgeous, the snow at the side, delightful, the snow actually snowing from the top - a distraction that made me stop hating winter today and I am really sick and in a little "hate" mood, so this is big. Thank you for reminding me to be nicer.
