my snowman

This is the first poem I wrote that I can remember -- and I think it was actually pretty good. I was 10, and it was for "Poem in my Pocket" day at school.

My Snowman

When I make my snowman
With a carrot for his nose
Along comes my pony
Munch munch! Off she goes!

When I make my snowman
With peanuts for his toes
Along comes a squirrel
Munch munch! Off he goes!

When I make my snowman
With no nose or toes
Along comes my puppy
Now he has yellow clothes.
