A FAREWELL TO FROSTY
(Meltdown)

On his last trip in the early dawn
he helped to water forest lawn
why oh why did he melt down;
there was snow still on the ground?

Into fresh water he did turn
a rusty pail is now his urn
coal black eyes and carrot nose
he’ll soon move in a garden hose

Environmentalists are all in mourning
he met his end through global warming
Farewell to Frosty, a white coated friend
Because of a meltdown, he met his end!
