The Snowman Takes A Holiday By Cynthia Jones, www.PoetryPoem.com/poetryandshortstories10 Unlock all Features - Upgrade to Poetry Prime
The snowman takes a holiday
to Florida, he decided to go,
he got tired of waiting
all Winter, for it to snow.
He gathered up his suitcases
hopped on a bus heading out of town,
he couldn't wait to get on the plane
tired of the rain coming down.
He picked up his golden ticket
in the corner where the desk sat,
he had to run to catch the bus
and was feeling rather fat.
He struggled with his suitcases
as they all started to pop open,
busting at the seams, they were
with this, he didn't feel like coping.
He threw his suitcases on the ground
and was throwing such a hissy fit,
this wasn't going quite right for him
he didn't like this, not one little bit.
The security guards came running
people were standing all around,
watching this childish snowman
rolling and thrashing on the wet ground.
They put him in a straight jacket
he cursed like a sailor through town,
people stared and laughed at him
when security told him to, "Pipe down".
He refused to remain calm and quiet
wanted to be on a plane instead,
"Get me to Florida now!" he yelled
"Before I kick y'all in the head!"
Security threw him in a room
with thick, soft padded walls,
they walked away with him still yelling
"I'm going to kick y'all in the balls!"
Mr. Snowman wasn't very happy
it wasn't supposed to be this way,
he should be on holiday in Florida
having fun, swimming the day away.
