A SNOWY SURPRISE

By Josie Whitehead

Snowy Surprise (A)

The snowflakes float upon the breeze
     And coat the countryside
For Snow has left his mark behind
     And then, 
in silence, hides.

​

With Winter his accomplice, Snow,
     Dressed in his coat of white,
Coats countryside and city streets,
     Then sneaks well out of sight.

​

The children wake and see a scene
     That’s magic, in their sight.

They know who, whilst they have slept,
     Has worked hard in the night.

​

It’s on with boots and winter coats;
     The sledges are brought out.
The woolly hats are on their heads
     And children’s voices shout.    

  

Then off they go: ‘Enjoy your day,
      And try not to get wet,’
But a day of sliding on the slopes
     Is fun they’ll not forget.
