Snowball Fight
In a wintry realm where laughter takes flight, Beneath a sky so vast and pearl-white, Children dance in a blizzard's embrace, Arming snowballs in a frosty arms race. Gloves clasp snow, with mirth in their eyes, They sculpt their icy orbs, winter's surprise. A battlefield of white, a soft, cold delight, As snowballs arc in a whimsical flight. Amidst the flurries, a joyful uproar, Each strike met with laughter, then ready for more. A world turned magical, under snow's spell, Where each flake's a story, eager to tell. Their breath like mist, in the chill air it lingers, Snowflakes kiss cheeks, like frost's gentle fingers. In this playful war, there are no defeats, Only the joy of winter's heartbeats. As dusk descends, the game finds its end, With rosy cheeks, and spirits ascend. In the quiet hush, under twilight's sight, Glow memories of the snowball fight.
