Only two got to see the summers day

The Snow Man, The Scarecrow, and The Worm

The snow man stood by the garden gate

his eyes were stones and his smile was flat

he watched the scarecrow in the field

worn and tired with a hat too big

The scarecrow nodded with ragged hands

his clothes all torn from sun and rain

he saw the worm beneath the snow

slow and quiet in the cold white earth

The worm wriggled through the frozen ground

searching for a place to hide

while snow man waited in the cold

and scarecrow dreamed of warmer days

They stood like friends but said no words

just kept their watch through winter’s grip

the snow man melting, scarecrow swaying

the worm still digging deep below

When spring came soft and warm at last

the snow man was gone with the thaw

the scarecrow stood in sunlight bright

and worm felt life stir in the soil
