SNOW SNOW ! !
Arthur and Ginny hurried outside with their new sleigh !
Wow Arthur, look at this white world, it's a pity Higgins couldn't join us, he had to help Uncle Ukki.
Wait Arthur ! Do you hear that ?
They heard a woefully sound, it was like a sad song.
They listened carefully and yes the sound came out of a cave nearby .Oh my goodness ! There stood a Snowman singing a very very sad song. . .
What's the matter mister Snowman ?
And then he started to tell his story. . . . . .
♫ I came from the heavens as snow
you know
I fell on the ground, just looking at the sky
Then a little boy passes by
♫ He made me, I think it was yesterday
when he was finished, he ran away
♫ If snow becomes a snowman
you are born again
Now I have eyes for sight
to see this world's delight
♫ But I wish I was in another place
instead of this tiny space
♫ I'm standing in this little hole
I might just have been snow under someone's sole
♫ I'm all alone, nothing to see
Even the stars can't smile down on me
♫ I have never seen the moon
And I will be melting soon
♫ So, no memories to share with Mother Earth
What has my life been worth ?The poor Snowman cried a big icicle
His head and arms hang down
Oh mister Snowman, I know what to do !
Wait a sec, I'll be right back ! They ran and ran as fast as their little legs could carry them.
Before the Snowman could blow his carrot nose he saw a merry parade coming his way !
Mister Snowman, here is something beautiful to look at and we brought you a little friend of us to keep you company.
His name is Duff and he is a bear so he likes being in a cave and don't mind snow.
He will be your friend until you melt !
The Snowman couldn't believe his little charcoal eyes.
That was the most beautiful tree to see ! And this little bear wants to be friends !
When Arthur and Ginny went back home the Snowman had a big smile and he and Duff waved them goodbye .Little Duff is made by Sharon:

ReplyDeletePS---Mike just read your story and thought it was so cute too, he said "She should make it into a book!"
ReplyDeleteLittle Duff will be able to tell the sweet Snowman of the wondrous sights outside in the World. He can tell the Snowman stories and share Christmas with him.He will fill the Snowman's heart with experiences and adventures and when it is time for the melting, the place where the Snowman stood will be blessed. Oh Helen..Yes, your stories should be books! I am always thrilled to read them and the characters are ever-lasting!
