In honor of National Poem in Your Pocket Day today, here is one of my kids' favorite poems:
Snowball, by Shel Silverstein
I made myself a snowball
As perfect as could be.
I thought I'd keep it as a pet
And let it sleep with me.
I made it some pajamas
And a pillow for its head.
Then last night it ran away,
But first -- it wet the bed.
