Neighbor

Sheet of ice blanketing the street.
He stood three feet short
in front of my house.
Hockey stick in hand
boots on his feet.
Come out and play.
Cloud of words forming in the cold still air.
The winter chill bit my face as I stepped out.
A smile grew
consuming his young face.
Stick in my hand.
