Notes About The Poem

                         

Winter Felt Magical

Time recorded my memories of youth when winter felt magical and much more. I was oblivious to the cold truth; and with snow skis strapped to my feet, I'd soar. Come Christmas, I'd write Santa a letter while my mom hung a wreath on our front door. And homemade snow cones tasted much better than popsicles purchased from any store. Winter was a time to look forward to, a time to build snow forts and slide down hills. And snowball fights were a fun thing to do, like riding toboggans or taking spills. Yesterdays weren't frightened of tomorrow, my innocence knew nothing of sorrow.
