A rather silly attempt at Mother Comb's, 'How to Build a Snowman' Challenge! You can find it here:
Make fresh footsteps on innocent snow.
Join together and watch me grow.
Let Laughter guide your mittened hands.
Jump into the delight; only youth understands.
Carefully roll my body into place-
And then shape my lopsided face.
Craft my eyes with joy and glee -
Fashioned from whatever you can see.
Curve my mouth into a generous hug,
And feel your heart glow, warm and snug.
Born of love, Iāll smile for a little while.
Shining from inside my perfect snowy pile.
And, as I melt away into a summerās day.
Your memories treasured will forever stay.

A worthy winner which shows the power of dreams to influence us.
