This poem of a fun winter's play was light and descriptive - just right for a poem for children. I saw a couple of typos, but it was otherwise well-written. The rhyme and rhythm were steady. The focus didn't drift. The story had a beginning, middle, and end. The first person POV suited the poem well.

This poem, Lord Harold, presented with five ABCB-rhymed quatrains, finds the happy kids on a winter day creating another brother who will be as happy and well-dressed as a snow-bro could be.

Building a snowman with my kids was always one of my favorite things to do in the winter cause generally, it would be too cold for me. But the joy that would happen as we all worked together it was fun to see how long the snowman would last until it melted away. This was a nice children's poem that brought me back down memory lane.
