Wear a brown hat like a snow-man <br />Sleep with the dogs in the snow <br />While the Northern Lights are turning <br />And the moon tells all she knows. <br /> <br />Tell me you’re not leaving <br />Tell me you’re content <br />But you’re shaking like a flower <br />So cold and oh so wet. <br /> <br />You’re my snow-storm baby <br />So out of touch <br />You’re so ruthless, baby <br />But the snowman has a crutch. <br /> <br />The children light their candles <br />Their daddy says his prayers <br />If dreams are just to bury <br />Tomorrow comes despair. <br /> <br />You don’t believe I love you <br />So discontent <br />But there’s a creature stirring <br />And the fire has been set. <br /> <br />You’re my snow-storm baby <br />But I still like your style <br />I’m your sled-dog, baby <br />And the snow-man wears a smile.<br /><br />Brian Purdy<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/christmas-cabin-fever/
