Snowed In

Oh sweet recall
And memory
Bring back winter's history,
Of playing in
The snow with you
Like we were children,
Snowball fight
Till soaking through
And building snowmen,
We even did the cliché;
Stuck in a carrot nose
And stones for eyes,
Until finally, freezing,
Retreated inside
To warm towels and
Cups of tea,
And teasing, tickling,
With icicle fingers,
Rosy cheeked and laughing,
Snowflake flutter kisses,
All the while wishing
To share warmth and a bed,
Christmas card scene
Through the window;
Oh to be snowed in,
With you.
