A Snowman’s Purpose
The snowman winters in our hallway.
Not every day.
Just when the cats are at play.
Greets us in the morning
when we’re late risers and we haven’t fed the beasts.
All since Christmas
when the decorations were out
and we were celebrating,
the plush fellow with sewn on scarf
cavorted on the floor between their paws
like a puck they chased.
The snowman lifelessly looks up at me now
begging his return to the Christmas box.
The reindeer, elf, jolly man wait.
He is done celebrating this extended season.
After I finish my coffee, okay?
The attic is especially cold.
