the snowman s adventure

Eurielle

Limb by limb they build me
Out of crisp white snow
neath the tallest fir tree
Hung with lights aglow
Piece by piece I m growing
Ready for the world
But know not yet where I m going
Nor do the boys and girls

I only know they re out there
All my white snowfriends
If only I can find where
Our path starts and ends
Perhaps I ll try to call them
I wonder if they ll hear
Now the night has fallen
And the moon a perfect sphere

Suddenly I see it
Stretching far away
Where the earth and sky split
And night rules o er the day
But it s a long, long journey
And I m just made of snow
So I have one chance only
To find my precious home

The children fast asleep now
They know not of my plan
So, if I make it somehow
I hope they ll understand
For I too have a family
That I would like to see
And share with them my happy
Tales on christmas eve

So, on a great adventure
I embark tonight
Guided by the splendour
Of the pale moonlight
Toward another realm
Where time drifts beyond measure
And bid this last farewell
For I know it s now, or never!
