Two ice palaces built For we only need two Take a side if you can Be you rosey or blue It's the party of parties Get up out of that drift Taking stock of the heartiest Give your spirits a lift Though the winter is on And the snow blows in gale In your warm mittens don Let your heart high and hale And be sure that you know As I make with suppose If I catch you off guard in a scud snowball low I'm quite good at this game, primed and postured just so What a light heart just knows from the tassle to boot Yeah I know it is winter, and I don't give a hoot! Be it holiday blues, or the grayer of hues That I throw down the glove and just call all of you's Make it fun if you dare Giggle loud, I don't care I just can't pass the moment without being aware If I wing you, it's love If I miss you, don't fuss I'll be back on the flip side, or in stealth as I does With a bucket of snow...and a cheerful hello Yeah that's right, it's a dare...double dog you out there Put some white on the blue, with a snowball or two And just think with a wink, who knows what this may brew? |

At least the violence is contained and local. You dont spread it to your neighbours and cause it to be spread from them, nor attack those that can not harm you to the degree of thousands of people who die as the earth reacts. Very nicely put words. Dave |

Tis the ice that will foretell the winner at the last rung bell. For he has the ball that shall be down the back, this you'll soon see. The rocket raised soon will shoot that ball of dribbling cold on your snoot. You'll hit the ground, a resounding thud, here comes Gridley's accurate scud... SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS THAwakkkkkkk! |

So softly she snickers, round the drifts to her knickers Dave was there in deep thought, unaware what she brought... From the silence came poured, the fine packed in award...and good fun to be had Though our Dave might get mad... Only temperal time, then his eyes found the sign... At your own risk you come, to my castle to dine...Just the queen of the snow, not an enemy no...but a good hearted, albeit nearsighted pro Thanks for the comments Dave... THWACK! SNowball at 1:00 o'clock my friend. Gotcha! TD |

I'd throw if I could but I'm all shoveled out those darn plows pushed it back as if I had doubt I dared them this time standing still for the third If they do it again it's my screaming to be heard For 3 hours I lifted enjoying at first but the last plowed in push took away the fun's thirst So here's one, a soft ball to you and your rhymes As I rest my worn shovel, until needed next time... ~smiling~ in need of a good body massage * heading towards that first foot of snow M |

The snow queen took grin From the plight of our M Understanding she nodded And then giggled again Though I know you deserve A massage given verve Just fair play must obey And in glee did she serve And a dusting came down On eyelashes and crown Then to shovel the last of a passing plows frown Helping hand given lend, and hot chocolate for M Now rest up by the fire, come and join us again Hugs, TD |

With my hair all white frozen could break off with ease I undress wet these clothings into warmth to lose freeze I shall drink my hot chocolate and step into the tub, old fashioned and footed a deep heat body rub So for now I shall leave you these muscles in need The vanilla is waiting my "physical feed" ~smiling~ |

And the smile grew bigger With her mind spinning fast Just a chance taking shape To get Magnus at last So as M, took her leave In the grace she wears well Diamond threw that scud snowball And then ran fast as spell And Ms M turned around From the depths rose a wave Though she rarely throws curses This time none were dismayed Just our Mag standing there Poised with snowball aloft And TD stood up swiftly Pointing there she cried soft And in shock dropped the snowball As our M wound up tight And she pegged that poor man Almost put out his light TD giggled and wiggled her way round the bend Only fairly to find but her fair weathered friend He was white from the sight to toes of his boot And dumped the snow down, in her scarf and her suit She deserved it you know, for this game she cooked up And I'm telling you so, that's the way to keep up And then M came around just to serve up a point And the hill they rolled down caused a laugh round the joint... Come on out said the queen There's still snow to be seen And I'm not finished yet Serving snowball cuisine Heehee Magnus. |

A girl is a girl and a guy is the man and throwing is for boys who really can. The SnowQueen faltered in her step and verve as the Mag rebounded and served a curve. The ball rounded the first tree of the yard, like a boomerang thrown fast and so very hard. It sound could be heard for blocks away as the collision with her tush caused such great "HEY!".......... Now she rests with bruises on her flank so wet. The fireplace was burning, this I would bet. He sighted the Monty of the aft in view and fell off his pedestal into his stew!!!! |

Oh really, she waited...a twinkling eye Just what was the matter with this here guy? Her wit was keen, she dug a cave In the flurry of snow made by this deft knave And beneath she tucked safely Just waiting it out As the snow cleared come lately With his hat cocked in pout What had happened he pondered With a mere gruff of chin From depths up she wandered And pushed him right in Now the last laugh was had Though its far from the end He should know that a snowqueen In her honor defend And the ice palace glimmered And the laugher roared on Though that Magnus still simmered Thinking what had gone wrong A doo dah doo dah day! |

A hole he saw at the top of the hole, sitting there warm as fair furry mole. He could hear her laughing, taunting him. Oh lordy, could the snowqueen icily swim? He busted out in his bulletproof Vee, roaring toward the house, tweedle dee dee. She screamed with fright as the snow fell down deep above her now, this icicly crown. He laughed and roared, grinned and howled for she was beneath all that the Vee had plowed. Her arms were pinned, her feet shed of shoes, sitting there singing, the snow ball blues. |

Now the Snow Queen partook Just the bait on her hook And the air became breezy, A bit cheesy her grin crooked Just a plan of attack To cut short his brisk flack Wishing Sunshine would show up And pay him right back Maybe Nancy perhaps Give these red cheeks their chaps But without them she knew That regardless relapse And the Snow Queen got free Climbing out hand and knee Standing tall on the top Of the palace with glee And she bowled a strike straight Took that man two steps late He was laughing too hard To give any rebate PSSST...SUNSHINE....HELP!!! |

The shower was hot, filled with steam as he washed off all that coffee and cream. He muttered and swore she would soon lose cause her number was the one he did choose. And after he dried the one last hair on top he ran out the door, into snow and dirty slop. A ball he made with care and precision One that would take her out in unanimous decision. The count would be eight in the first round and all she would hear was a sharp thudding sound. The ball flew through the door left open wide, cause the silly dame's mind could not decide if the weather was right for an open door shot or to just sit there grinning, awaiting his plot. The sound rebounded off the wall and ceiling leaving her ears singing and reeling. A thwack was all that she could recall as twixt her eyes there was a icy white ball. Game, Set and match....again |
