Little boy dreaming in the first winter snow Ice castles and dragons all clean and bright The wind on his cheek is snowdragons breath The sound in the trees...snowdragons growls In defense of his castle his weapons he draws Icicle swords and magic snowball charms His sled his steed as he rushes forth To conquer this dragon...this dragon of snow The battle is fierce...but still he fights on Growing colder and weaker with each dragon breath His sword lies in crystal shatters And he is left with just one magic charm With the last of his strength He throws it...and watches...as it sails Then....... .........MICHAEL!!!!!!LUNCH!!!!! Little boy dreaming... |

This is great ! You're a typical beautiful mother the way you think! Good writing I really enjoyed this having been a little boy myself one time...ahem....a LONG time ago love to ya ethome The poet is like a cocoon; in him the caterpillar of the past finds rest, and from him the butterfly of the future emerges. |

The wonder of childhood, you've captured it completely! I applaud! After years of searching, I have found I am nothing more, nothing less...I am in truth Just A Woman after all. |
