This is my youngest daughter! For you to catch her spirit is six short words is amazing. I didn't realize you knew her. What a small world, unless you're talking about someone else. Oh, it doesn't matter, because this brought back a lot of memories of her as my wild child. Thanks.

Making snow angels! I know, I was the wildest child, and I made GREAT snow angels, for a lil devil! (lol) When you know what it is without description or pic, that's poetry.
AS Sven would say, "Yumpin' Yiminey, dat's a goot one dere!"
Best wishes Kar,
Curt

Simple, beautiful. An image says more than a thousand words, and a snow angel, well... duh.

This one is really good for the contest parameters. In a way it captures the absence of the child, triggering an imprint, surfacing nostalgia. In essence, it succeeds, and in fewer words than it takes to say it.

oh-oh, a short one ..... ummmm ..... This is charming and really quite clever Indy. Yes, a wild, little terror flapping their arms madly in the snow, have suddenly appeared as a little angel (even if we know better!)
I loved this.

This is a very clever 6 word story IndianIrish! A wild child being transformed into an angel, if only a reflection in the snow.

I used to love to make those angels. Nice job!

I've seen lots of these lately!! -- snow angels, that is. With our unexpected 12 and one-half inches here in Dallas, every kid decorated their lawn with one. Love the picture, premise and the presentation. Good joc. ann

    Every kid should know the joy of creating an angel in the snow, Ann. I'm glad your Texan kiddos got the chance to plop down and be angelic, go sledding, and make soem snowmen.
    Thank you,
