A Snowman Built For Social Media
A How-To Poem- Mother Combs
This is for Mother Comb's, whimsical and delightful 'How to Build a Snowman' Challenge! Thank you!
Snow has fallen.
Time to assemble
my Snowman.
Dress for warmth
always in mind.
Gloves, not mittens, for a better hold,
snowsuit with boots.
Oatmeal knit hat and wooly light blue scarf.
Set off into the snow.
Crunch!
Crunch!
Crunch!
Roll N’Roll
the compact snow.
One large,
one medium,
one oh so small.
Pull out from my tan wicker basket,
one tangerine orange carrot,
five jet black buttons of different sizes,
two twisted twigs of dark burnt umber.
Push here,
push in there.
Viola!
iPhone selfies is next on the list
tis the thing to do these days.
With a goofy face and a twinkle of delight in my eyes,
I snap away.
For this Snowman will be on all my social media sites
by tonight.
