SUPER BATTLEFIELD
There's a war on, it's been planned,
Strategies have been worked on, enemy close at hand.
Two Generals who do know of each other,
One's arm is his cannon, the other a fighter.
They're gearing up fore it's time to stand and fight,
Strap on their armor, weapons are of many.
Through pain or blood or the dark, cold, of night,
They do not surrender on this battlefield of might.
Armies of two, strong and fearless they march,
Until one is laying on the field, battle rages on.
This is a battlefield like no other,
Strength and speed, mistakes must be few.
A near perfect game plan, a prayer, and some hope,
To the victor, a field taken, champions proud,
They will stand tall.

SNOWFLAKES
SNOWFLAKES
They fall from the sky with not a number to describe,
Not one is the same as they go their own certain way.
Rain on down, floating to a destination where they join
As one,
Watch as they float, their life span may be of a moment in time.
Snowflakes appear from the clouds, cold as they find their way
Down,
From a snowflake there is not a sound, snowflakes are forever
Around.

SOMEWHERE IN THE SNOW
SOMEWHERE IN THE SNOW
Lost so long ago, a brother and sister, somewhere in
The snow,
They had names, playing on a January day when
They lost their way.
When the snow started to fall, their path was not
Recalled,
They were never seen again as all stories have not
A beautiful ending.
They have for many years now wandered somewhere
In the snow,
Ghosts of a January searching for a way back home,
Together they roam.
There is no sadness, no tears on faces anymore,
Not cold in the snow,
They are together forever, they journey to a new
Eternal home.

SNOWMAN
SNOWMAN
From where I come, high in the sky,
I land in many a place, I am reborn.
The sun is not my friend, water is unkind,
Children understand me, they dress me up so fine.
I stand guard in many a Winter yard,
I am a friend, silent till the seasons end.
I will go away, with your help I will be back again,
I am a snowman, with button eyes, a hat, and a scarf I wear.
Something for a nose, something to hold,
Imagination gives me life, I am a Winter thought,
I am a snowman, cold and never always gone.

SNOW AROUND THE LAKE
SNOW AROUND THE LAKE
Look to the sky, oh! such a cold, cold-looking clouded sight,
Not too soon before, must have dropped a white blanket
Around this lake.
Trees covered with layers of frosty snow, standing,
Always standing,
Watching over this still, almost frozen water, surrounded
by the Winter snow.
Silent ar they until the howling winds teach them to speak,
Echoing the thrashing of their branches into the Winter’s day.
On the other side, across the water, beyond the tall, beautiful
Pine trees,
A cabin, a wood-covered cabin sits staring, always staring at
A lake that the neverending sky looks down upon.
There’s much, much, more than just snow around the lake,
There is a world of nature that lives together.
