Analysis of Chloe and the Snowman
On Christmas Eve, while snow fell down,
My Chloe walked through her small town
And loved the falling snow.
While in the park before the dark,
Sweet Chloe made where she had strayed
A happy snowman near a hill
Which gave sweet Chloe such a thrill
To build him very slow.
She looked to choose the things to use
When she began to build that man.
She added snow on snow 'till she
Had made a man of snow to be
A sentry who would not depart
His post because his Chloe was
Quite happy and all because
She made him with her heart!
