Thoughts of a Snowman

So happy there the boys and girls
around me playing in the bright  white snow 
under a vault so clear and blue. 
The same sunlight than shines on them
and cheers them with its warm caress 
makes me slowly melt away. 
I weep, perspire, 
grow smaller, softer, with each hour, 
I made by happy hands 
with the snow of yesterday. 
Though today I melt away, 
though tomorrow I am no more, 
happy am I for their sakes, 
for the children playing there.
