Elena Eagle Poet Free verse

Ice House

Old man winter has been busy
Leaving frost and freeze across the land
Rooftops transformed into white wonderland 
That green grass is white as snow
Waiting for the warmth of the sun to grow
To go outside into the cold it not a wish 
We would rather be inside eating a warm dish
