Dear Mr. Snowman

Dear Mr. Snowman,

I wonder what it's like, being made of snow.

What have you observed? What all do you know?

On warmer days you could melt 

Or be blown away by the breeze.

On colder days a blizzard could steal you away with a single icy sneeze.

Your grin is slightly crooked,

And there are twigs poked in your body.

You're not perfectly round,

And your arms look rather knobby.

The rocks all down your front

Aren't in a perfect line

And the flowers pressed to your snowy shirt

Have been blown off over time.

No, you're not perfect, Mr. Snowman, but that's how I like you to be;

Misshapen, crooked, out of place

Yes, you look great to me.

    In my head

    Noise

    Every day

    Swirling

    Twirling

    Dipping and diving

    New lows and new highs

    Noise

    Everywhere

    All the time

    When their nagging talking ugh

  • Sailing

    If I could sail

    I'd sail away

    Far away

    I'd sail away from this place

    But I wouldn't go to another

    I would stay in between

    Refusing to stay

    Refusing to go

    If I could sail
