SNOW GLOBE

I can have winter
whenever I want,
all I have to do
is turn the snow globe 
over, see the smiling snowman
watch white and silver snow
flakes falling.

I can feel the globe,
like a snow ball,
chilling my mittened hand.
The cold runs
straight to my heart,
warms like fire,
like magic,
all I have to do
is turn the snow globe 
over and
BELIEVE.


     Do you believe in the magic of the holiday season?  A season of giving and sharing?  So, close your eyes for a moment and think about your own make-believe snow globe.  What is in there?  What do you see?   Are you in your snow globe?  What does it feel like?  Who else is there with you?  Now write a poem about that.  I'd love to see your globe.
