We hoped that snow would fall about
but all that fell was rain
and when King Wenceslas looked out
he soon went in again.

He got that brolly - Good King Wotsit-lass?! Good write, lol.
He had to go out in the end to collect the fuel!
Is he back home again now?!
Yes but the fuel's wet.
Cute snowman/fire drawing! Always love your artwork. Very cute poem!
Thanks Kat - I always wondered why he stepped out in the first place and who the heck is that peasant and what's he got to do with the price of fish? Has the world gone mad. Does anyone know?
Who knew that King Wenceslas was a snowman! Cute write and sketch, Michael!
I think he's melted into history - or is it legend?
Good one, Michael, and I can see myself in the sketch! But with our weather here, I'll be melted before the 24th!
I'm so envious Fred - wish I was there now instead of cold wet UK.

Thanks Laura - I remember being a bit disappointed when I visited St Wenceslas Square in Prague although I love the City.
