‘Snowball’  by Shel Silverstein

I made myself a snowball

As perfect as could be.

I thought I'd keep it as a pet

And let it sleep with me.

I made it some pajamas

And a pillow for its head.

Then last night it ran away,

But first it wet the bed.

Christmas   Wendy Cope

Tis the season to be jolly,

Put up the tree and lots of holly,

Then pass around the loving cup...

And let the men do the washing up.

April 2nd - Good Morning!

Spring is on the line         liz

A call from Cambridge* and spring arrived

with the gentle burbling of a wood pigeon

clear behind my cousin's telling of

how cold and still the day’d begun,

out with Baxter on his early morning run,

air crisp, grass crunching underfoot,

stiff and white with hoar-frost.

Now late afternoon, sitting outside

in a sun warmed corner,

the view empty of roads...people...

just a roll of fields, trees and sky.

“I’m hot!” she muttered,

a muffled sound of clothing being shed,

(a wood pigeon’s coo filled the pause)

then, “I’m basking in my bra!”

We talked of family, things that warm the cockles,

of kids and grandkids, her recent holiday,

and all the while, the sound of wood pigeons

kept sifting down the line,

and when we said goodbye,

it was like hanging up on spring.

*from cousin Sarah.
