This snowman may look innocent
but there’s mischief in his eye
See that crooked little smile…
you think he might be foreign spy?
Let’s celebrate these days with joy
’til naughty snowman says “goodbye!”

keep the best memories
let unpleasant ones go
keep faith in truth
turn from all false-ness
keep forward movement
stop procrastination now
keep expressing your heart
ignore rude criticism
keep head held high
don’t lose confidence
keep smiling at life
watch life smile back!

theory 1:
my son says
it was the only
smile she could
muster after sitting
for four years and
the painter still said
“it’s not finished”.
theory 2:
i think maybe
Lisa stifled a giggle
as she changed her
pose ever so slightly
to watch Leonardo
squint and frown
behind his easel.
