The Beginning of a Snowball Fight

Justin Pascual

The Beginning of a Snowball Fight

The snow is soft,
So easy to mould,
Into a snowball,
For you to hold,
 As you finish it up,
With a pat, pat, pat
A devious desire overcomes you.
As you pull your arm back,
And whip it forward,
You hear a familiar, satisfying SMACK.
