Once there was a snowman...



Twas' the week before finals and all through the land,

college students were studying the books in their hand.

"We're tired!" they cried, with a great pouty shout,

"We've been studying for months, and we're all studied out!

It's snowing outside and we want to go play!

Couldn't you please make these tests go away?"


But the tests would not go and the studying could not stop.

What's a student to do when their brains want to pop?

Why, they look for distraction, for fun and a rest,

they look for an Indian who just is not dressed.


"It just isn't right!" they say with a grin,

"He must be so cold in naught but his skin!

We must dress him in layers to keep out the cold,

Here's snow on the ground, let's make him look bold!"


So the students got busy and packed him up tight.

and the Indian didn't put up much of a fight.

The next morning as students poured into the school,

they noticed that something looked pretty dang COOL!

Why, Frosty had come to visit them all!

Hip Hip Hooray! HE'S 15 FEET TALL?!

THE END
