Pull on those gloves. <br />Tug your hat over your ears. <br />Wrap a scarf of dreams around <br />Your neck and come join me.... <br /> <br />Let's go for a walk in the <br />Winter sunshine, kicking the leaves <br />Along the pathway of life <br />Delighting in togetherness <br /> <br />Collecting conkers <br />Remembering our youth <br />Watching our frosty breath <br />Make patterns in the air <br /> <br />Huddling together <br />Playfully pushing and shoving <br />Dodging the icy patches, gently <br />catching each other's stumbles <br /> <br />Pinching red noses <br />Savouring cold lips and sweet hotness <br />Running the last few yards <br />And crashing throught the front door <br /> <br />Those simple things <br />That mean so much when shared <br />Take a mug of hot chocolate <br />And just sit and stare....<br /><br />Michelle Tiddy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/conkers-or-maybe-bonkers/
