Winter Wonderland
Winter Wonderland is a poem written by me, inspired by my first winter in the UK. growing up in Africa and coming to the UK as a child, winter was alien to me. I can still remember the first winter we had and my dad, mom and sister, as well as aunty, all came out into the chilling cold to snap pictures.
I finally stringed the thoughts together when I was asked to write a poem for my homework at school. We had to write a poem about a couple of seasons.
Is there anyone out there that can relate to this experience of mine? You can share your experience here.
Winter Wonderland
I woke this morning and looking out of the window
I saw
An all-encompassing soft white blanket on the earths surface
It was
Hiding all evidence of the world I know, gone!
I was
Captivated.
I threw my clothes on and rushed outside.
I felt
The crunch of the snow beneath my feet
It was
Addictive. Cool! A new discovery.
I was
Overwhelmed.
I sat excitedly in the car on my way to the town.
I saw
Ice skaters jumping, twirling, other kids playing, laughing, hot cocoa…
It was
My 1st Winter
I was
In Winter Wonderland.
