THE SNOWMAN BALL

All the snowmen that children laughingly made,
Standing outside our houses like a frosty parade,
On a silent night, with hoarfrost breath do call,
Time to get ready one and all,
For the annual Snowman Ball.

So come join in the fun
For of snow there’s a ton,
Plenty of ammunition just lying on the ground,
So mould an icy missile tight and sound
And with carefree frolicking throw it around

All the merry snowmen laugh with glee
For Christmas is the happiest time of year you see,
A snowball party,
A time of exultation,
Jubilation,
deep gratification,
and joyous exhilaration,
For these round mounds of compacted snow’s lace.
Even two Santas and their reindeer are dancing all over the place.

The snowmen wish you peace
Hope that joy will in our homes increase
And a special Christmas love
Like the snows filtering down from above
Will in our hearts with warmth abide
Throughout the coming New Year’s millennial tide.
