Snow
by Sophie Patel
Snow on the sills
Snow on the hills
Snow on the tree tops
But not on me:

“Mummy mummy look
In the sky, it’s falling snow” Continue reading “A Snow Day Story”

He said, “son don’t let all that fancy talk be any sort of guide,
They only lasted four days and six people died”. Continue reading “A Valentine’s Day Verse”
