The  Winter Picnic
by

Josie Whitehead

 

Winter is wearing his white, woolly vest �

Today he�s looking his very best.

He�s having a picnic with his best friend, Ice,

In a cold, snowy field � so that�ll be nice.

 

Mmm � There�s two lovely iceburgers inside the ice box,

Some frost, lots of snow and two little iced rocks,

There�s freezing cold water for the two friends to drink �

�What a LOVELY picnic�, I�m sure you will think.

 

When the picnic�s all finished they can swim in the river,

In the freezing cold water they�ll both laugh and shiver.

Oooh good, we can play in this wonderful snow

And make a snow-castle before we must go.

 

The two friends have had such a wonderful day.

�We hope the cold weather will not go away.

How lovely it�s been in this biting cold wind!�

Make the most of it now � it soon will be spring!
