Snow makes whiteness where it falls
The bushes look like popcorn balls
And places where I always play
Look like somewhere else today
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
Winter Arrival
by Marilyn Lott
It was a typical winter day
As I went for a little drive
I wanted to celebrate
For winter had arrived
I bundled up and took
My morning country trip
But as I got out of my car
I was careful I didn’t slip
For the fields were white
The road was slick with ice
But everything was lacy
It looked so fresh and nice
My world was transformed
To a winter wonderland
The ugly trees now lovely
Nature made its annual stand
I hope you see the beauty too
‘Course you’ll think about survival
When you have a white out scene
During nature’s winter arrival!
Jack Frost
by Helen Bayley Davis
Someone painted pictures on my
Windowpane last night
Willow trees with trailing boughs
And flowers, frosty white,
And lovely crystal butterflies;
But when the morning sun
Touched them with its golden beams,
They vanished one by one.

I love how well both of these poems highlight the beauty and simple tranquility that winter and its snow can bring. Too often people focus solely on winter’s negative aspects: its cold, slippery, and windy tendencies. Personally, I’d rather search for the wonderment and sense of peace the season can bring.
This pair of poems would be great to share with young readers. They are fun and easy to grasp, and perfect for inspiring little poets. Few things go together better than poetry and the creativity of children!
Wow! Good poems, I love these poems about winter. though there’s never been winter over here in India but you’ve made me feel like I have. I like the imagery and the voice in both poems. It brings the frost and the pureness of winter into ones mind. thanks.
I really like both of the poems – the poets used simple and beautiful words to describe the beautiful season of winter. The snow falling around every where makes it looks like a white blanket. You don’t see these type beauties of nature if you were living in a South Asian country but the poet makes me feel like that I was enjoying the winter season along with them.
wow these poems are amazing(: i do love a good poem about the winter time! thank you for these they are beautiful!.x
