And for the Krismas Kids,
Snowmen
When seven, Tony made a snowman:
a bulbous ball on which to rest
a slightly smaller stomach span.
And then a strong and manly chest,
a nicely curly rounded head
a face he felt the very best!
His eyes were brown like toasted bread
and red his little nose and lips,
but what he thought stayed in his head.
One sunny day his mouth, in drips,
slowly melted, seemed to say:
I am you with colder lips!
