It snowed and snowed
all through the night
till all the world was colored white
And in the early morning light
It was a truly gorgeous sight!

A little boy named Bobby Nye
Got bundled up to go out and play

Then Janie Jones who lived near by
Came running out to share his day

"Can I play with you", she sweetly said.
"And make a great big snowman
with a hat on his head?"

They worked and worked till all looked right
And the neighbors thought that it was quite

………...well…………

SPECIAL

….but they really couldn't say just why
It made them smile as they went by

Now Janie's Mom was in a bind
as she searched the house, but couldn't find
the gift for Grandma's birthday,
which had to be wrapped and on its way

...It was a heart-shaped pillow
with words that said  

...And would look just fine on Grandma's bed

She didn't take time to look outside
And see the pillow go inside

THE
SNOWMAN

When she found out later what Janie did 
She got really mad at her cute little kid 

"But Mama", little Janie said,
as she wiped a tear and bowed her head

"He had to have a heart, you know,
to keep him warm in all that snow!"

So Grandma got a birthday card
with a picture of the kids
and the snowman in the yard

Grandma called and said the scene
Was the nicest thing she'd ever seen

And that soggy pillow (after it dried)
would be even more special for being inside
a snowman that made lots of people smile
and forget their troubles for a little while
