Winter out wits the sun(shape Poem)
Winter Is Here
by Roxanna Andrews
Temperatures drop
and I bluster and blow, time for me to whip up some snow. It begins to rain, but I blow a cold wind and from rain drops snow flakes begin to form and fly by night and, shimmer in the moon's pale light. They fall, silently until the morning hour, when the sun xxxxxxxxxxxx will awaken feeling angry and glower xxxxxxxxxxxx at the white drifts that I made with flake and wind. Now Winter's time can begin. The wonder of it fills many a child's eye, as down hills of my snowy white powder they slide. Squeals of delight ring through towns large and small, and children wish for more snow to fall. Each parent hopes it is all done, but children see only the fun, of a snowball fight and sleds down a hill. To them it is an exhilarating, heart pounding thrill, to fly, my cold air biting at cheek, soon it will be a warm fire they'll seek. Maybe hot soup and a cup of cocoa, and back out into my wintry arms they will go. Then a snowman will be built, with a scarf at the neck, and a top hat of felt. Then some coal for eyes and a mouth pushed in tight, and a carrot nose positioned just right. Then the sun will go down having lost its bid, of trying my snow and ice to rid. As night flakes begin to fall, on a snow covered branch a white owl calls, "Whoo?" And I answer, "It's just me again. It's my time. Time for Winter to begin." |
