A Simpler Time

An edited version, of my poetic response, to Holly Mason's poem, "One Snowman At A Time". http://www.writerscafe.org/writing/HOLLYMASON/1146149/

Been so long.

Since

I was forced out
To play
In the snow.

Building snow people
To keep me
Accompanied.

Only
To have them
Destroyed by
Others.

Never
To witness
The rites of passage
A Spring thaw
Brings.
