One Lonely Snowman
- Poem by Emily Deason, Grade 8
One lonely snowman
standing alone on a peak
has he been there one day?
or maybe a whole week
One lonely snowman
with no one else around
is he able to talk
or can he make no sound
One lonely snowman
did he just come to be?
does it make him sad when
he looks down and sees no feet
One lonely snowman
I ask, are you cold?
does your scarf keep you warm
until you are very old
One lonely snowman
taking in the day
hopefully he'll enjoy it
until he slowly melts away
