I'm writing gingerbread poetry, and eating my way through a couple of them. #cutecartoon #gingerbreadman #gingerbread #funny #funnycartoon #laughing #sendingsmiles #smile #joy #Christmastime #munchingcookies #giggles #chuckles #writerslifeforme #kidlit #kidlitart #humor
With super packed days involving book and writing work, I seek out a little magic from one of my favorite artists, Lennart Helje.

Snow falls.
Winter
tiptoes across the valley.
I stifle a giggle-full of memories:
sleigh rides,
night ice skating,
snowball fights,
knowing full well
there'll be shoveling this season.

When summer’s hot
I dream of snow,
Of sleds and skates
And icy glow.
But now that winter blows his chill
‘Don’t think I’ve had my summer fill!

Rum pum pummer,
sidewalk drummer,
autumn raindrops
fritter summer.
Polish leaves
in golden-yellow,
shrouding summer's
friendly mellow.
