The Spider, the Elves and the Snowman
Christmas spider
in the tree
spinning tinsel
toy factory
elves making
toy elves
snowman?
three pebbles a carrot
and a hat
in the tree
spinning tinsel
toy factory
elves making
toy elves
snowman?
three pebbles a carrot
and a hat

About the Writer
Christine R Milne
Christine is a poet who loves writing haiku. Some of them have been published in journals and anthologies. Luckily other poems pop into her head. Most of them are for children which is not surprising as she enjoys being a teacher and a mother. Also, creating poems that connect with a child’s view of the world is really special. This is helped by her favourite hobby, trying not to eat too much chocolate.
