ode to a snowman

wakening to
big flakes of snow
round and fat
drifting silently down
filling full the view
from a window
with swirls of white dots
soft as cotton
light as a feather
reminding
of pictures posted
on the wall
in elementary school
where
fat dots of white paint
covering a page
and a snowman
arms outstretched
grin wide and hat cockeyed
making happy
and it's just the same
today
these swirls of white dots
falling from the sky
like a child with a big brush
throwing caution to the wind
spattering paint
all over the sky
making grins wide
and hats cockeyed
happy
