Winter Poems

 

Snowflakes


Snowflakes, snowflakes,
Twirl around.
Snowflakes, snowflakes,
Falling down.
Snowflakes, snowflakes,
Touch my tongue.
Snowflakes, snowflakes,
My song is sung.
Snowflakes, snowflakes,
Twirl around.
Snowflakes, snowflakes,
Falling down.
Snowflakes
Snowflakes are falling
On the ground,
On our houses and
In our town.

Snowflakes


I like snowflakes.
Ask me why. Why?
Because they fall from the sky,
Because they seem to dance and fly,
Because they pile up so high,
Because they are so white and dry.
Because they melt in my hand,
Because they're quiet when they land.
Because, because, because,
That's why,
I like snowflakes!

The Snowman
 

First the body
Then the head.
A stove pipe hat,
A scarf of red.
Sticks for arms,
And coal black toes.
Pebbles for eyes
And a carrot nose.

The Snow Blanket
 

Beautiful feathery flakes
of snow
Over the woodland and field
they go,
Making a blanket so warm
and deep,
Over the flowers that lie
asleep.

Mittens


Mittens for the snow time
When the world is white.
Mittens for my two hands,
Mittens left and right.
Mittens left and right.
Mittens with a thumb place,
Mittens make me feel like
A bug inside a rug!

Icicles


We are little icicles
Melting in the sun.
Can you see tiny
teardrops
Falling one by one?

Ten Little Snowmen

 

10 little snowmen riding on my sled,

One rolled off, and off came his head.

I called Frosty, and Frosty said,

"No more snowmen riding on that sled!"

Countdown until you get to one snowman riding on my sled.

 

1 little snowman riding on my sled,

One rolled off, and off came his head.

I called Frosty, and Frosty said,

"No more snowmen riding on that sled!"

 

Then

 

Zero little snowmen riding on my sled.

I jumped off and counted heads.

One--Two--Three--Four--Five--Six--Seven--Eight--Nine--Ten!

 

 

I Am a Snowman

 

I am a snowman.

See my black hat.

See my button eyes.

See my carrot nose.

See my green scarf.

See my red mittens.

See my ice skates.

I am a snowman.

Little Snowman

Sung to:  "I'm a Little Teapot"

I'm a little snowman round and fat,
Here are my mittens,
Here is my hat.
Add a little scarf and a carrot nose.
You stand so tall when the cold wind blows.

The Mitten in the Snow (Tune: "The Farmer in the Dell")


The mitten in the snow

Help us please so we won't freeze

Snowflakes

Tune: "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" 

Snowflakes, snowflakes falling down,
On the trees and on the ground.
I will build a man of snow,
Tall black hat and eyes of coal,
If the sun comes out today,
I will watch you melt away!
