SNOW DREAMS

Lured by the whiteness of the snow - written for Outlaw Poet's weekly contest!

SNOW DREAMS

Lured by the whiteness of the snow
I ventured out into the cold
Giving in to the seduction;
Lulled by memories of old.

As a child I played happily
When the snow began to fall;
Snowmen and snowladies,
Oh, yes, I made them all!

Snow angels everywhere,
Footprints come and gone
Of little creatures of the wild
Who came by, then went along.

Morning sun shone through my window
As I awoke from my snow dreams
Sweet seduction from Mother Nature
Is not as unusual as it seems.
