It snowed today, it made me sad,
I started missing you,
remembering all our fun and tears,
and the things we use to do.
The walks to school, through drifts of snow,
stacked high above our heads,
icicles dangling from branches,
so bare the tree looked dead.
I miss the angels, we made in the snow,
the ride on the wooden sled,
our hats , our gloves, not even our scarfs,
kept our nose from getting red.
The snowman we made was huge and tall,
it was so very round,
It took most of the winter,
to melt into the ground.
The days are getting longer,
winter must be done,
it's time for rain and flowers,
now I miss our springtime fun.
I miss you every season,
I'd bring you back if I could,
my life goes on without you,
I miss you my childhood.

I love having a big family even if it is profoundly annoying sometimes. At least you can look back and smile. Thank you for sharing.

You just know how to make that tear come to my eye don't you. I mean, Goly, you are so talented. I couldn't help it, but your poem made me think of how the time I have now with my child, 9 months old, will soon be gone and I too will be singing the same song that you are right here in this piece. The way you put everything togather is just so great. I love reading your poems. I hope to see more!

I adore this - I was right there with you, we are invincible as kids aren't we? I'm sure we never felt the cold either, only wore the gloves etc. as as Mom told us to. lol
Lovely trip for you and me - thanks for this entry, good luck.

That last line is so meaningful. It's hard to let go of the senseless fun of youth, and not try to analyze why you want to speed down a near 90 degree hill on top of a piecce of plastic!
Thanks for entering the contest, and welcome to Allpoetry
