Once A child in the snow When tomorrow seemed So far away When dreams were oh so real And easy to believe It seems so many years ago But it hasn�t been That long a time It was hard to get to sleep On Christmas Eve Through the years the fantasy Gave way to stark realities And it seems so much Was lost along the way Now a grown man but deep inside A magic place where this child hides Where the winter chill warms memories of love Memories of a child in the snow Copyright �2004 Edwin Dante Larson

I didn't know what to expect when I chose A Child in the Snow. The first thing that came to mind was the Viking's exposing their unwanted babies. I was pleased the poem was on a lighter subject. Wanted also to tell you a couple of the links on, I think, your Bio page don't work.
Happy writing. Linda

Well I was intrigued by the title but this is the magic of the season that no matter how old we get we are still that child.

So glad you kept that child within Ed, we need to hold on to what we can no longer get in this ever changing world, in which we throw out the baby with the bathwater too often...Wonderful poem...take care
