Mittens dyed brown with chocolate stains,
a tiny pinecone tucked close to your heart.
A little boy smiles and kisses your cheek,
twirling your fingers around, a snowlake.
A dancing nutcracker, a wreath of holly,
A fairy of snow and frost
Like a statue of ice, magnificently carved
of the flourishes of winter,
brushing, swaying, breezes of cold.
Rosy twinkling lights
and benches crafted of ski poles,
white silvery logs gathered in piles high up.
A flutter of evergreen trees in the biting cold wind,
papers folded and passed like soaring cardinals,
Mittens dyed brown with chocolate stains.
a little boy smiling back at you, mirthful.
