Poems
The Snow
by Emma Bowen
1996
Snow is like cottonwool
So fresh and beautiful
Frozen on the pond
So slippy and slidey
Snow glistening in the sunlight
It is fun to play with
It is damp and wet
Snow is play-full fluffy and white
It is crunchy but soft and very cold
I like it when it's
Squishy and sparkly
Quiet and sharp
I am afraid
by Emma Bowen
1995
I am afraid of
creaking doors
That open and shut
I am afraid of
daddy
long legs in my bed
I am afraid of loud
noises
in the dead of night
I am afraid of operations
by Emma Bowen
1995
Sitting at the table waiting for our lunch
I hope we have
roast turkey
Christmas pudding and herbs
Mince pies and custard
Cherries to share
Sweets to fill tum
Look over there a basket of
chocolate
for
me
