Snow!
New mittens, new hat,
and a red-striped scarf
will keep me warm
when cold winds blow.
I zip my coat,
wear extra socks,
warm, fuzzy boots—
I’m ready to go!
But the sun still shines,
and the green grass grows.
Hurry up, winter!
It’s time for snow!
and a red-striped scarf
will keep me warm
when cold winds blow.
I zip my coat,
wear extra socks,
warm, fuzzy boots—
I’m ready to go!
But the sun still shines,
and the green grass grows.
Hurry up, winter!
It’s time for snow!
