Magpie 44 |
Mittons with strings
And pink colored faces
Mufflers knitted and
Brakes prehistoric
A dray
Hauling goods
And toboggan
Luging
Standing tall
Against the wall

Inspired by Magpie Tales photo prompt and old memories that were also painted by my mother and posted on her folk art blog. And oddly that is the correct spelling of luging (derives from luge) according to online dictionaries. Shrug.
lot of nice winter memories encapsulated in your words...
