Winter Wonderland

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.
