Wonderland
Gently falling down from heaven White flakes of frozen magic Turning technicolour into monochrome Blending the world into one blank canvass A beautiful virgin scene develops Awaiting the first tentative steps Excited children don their bright wellies Rushing into this beautiful paradise. Snowmen, snowballing and sledging New experiences to enjoy and savour. Piercing screams of joy and laughter Echoes all around this glistening dreamland. Too soon this fantasy world is all over Powdery white dust morphs into grey sludge Children return home wet and frozen To await for another day in this spectacular wonderland.
