• A skater skates
    in a frozen figure eight
    as a child smiles,
    wrapping a scarf around his
    new snow-made friend.

    A couple embraces
    beneath a sprig of mistletoe,
    a blush upon her cheeks and
    their blossoming love
    perpetually new.

    Glitter-snow swirls
    in a man-made flurry,
    around this little world
    of plaster and glass,
    where it is winter forevermore.
