Best Sledging Poems

"Sometimes miracles happen when you're least expecting them. 
Quote by poet." 




It was the week before Christmas; it was a cold, bright snowy day
Told the kids we'll go sledging; unaware a blizzard was on the way
They all got into my jeep, and on the roof...

The lightly touching tinkling bells,
Shimm'ring, babbling, laughing in the breeze,
The ever-merry tapping bells,
Who now has these?

Low, slow, iron bells;
Deep, still, lead bells.
Bells.  Bells.  Bells.

All gladly-sounding glowing golden-bells,
Lilting, lighter, brighter yellow bells,
Mightier-yellow even whiter bells!
Ivory-keyed I-concerto-bells!
Striding proudly in the breeze
I have these!

The bells of...

When I was a lass, we didn’t have much
Funny how we liked it though, just as such
We played in the street with a whip and top
In the school playground on a hopscotch we’d hop

Streets were quiet ‘cause there weren’t many cars
Falling off our bikes to...

Sledging down high hill,
Some childrem might snowball fight,
See snowman smiling....

Winter memories that are still so vivid and bright
Those endless days playing with your mates
Snow falling when it should do, kids shouting and screaming
"It's snowing" running out, mum's shouting "Get some warm clothes on"
Scarves, balaclavas and gloves, only your face showing
Sledging in the snow, home...

The snow has come, 
everything is at a standstill. 
Everything grinds to a halt except, 
for the little children sledging. 
A little snow and the schools shut, 
The nurseries close down, nowhere 
to send the children. Ah, Grandparents" 

Must get to work, big project on,...

Life is not cricket: though a game of cricket reflects life 
It portrays real-life conditions; from cradle to urn 
Starting with toss of a coin; ends in pulling bails off
Just as cricket life is simply a game of twists and turns 
Cricket depicts aptitudes, attitudes...

Winter is a great time for a cruise,
on a ship of dreams lifetime memories were made;
remarkable and breathtaking this journey chased away my blues,
land of cold, sublime Alaska.  Passing floating icebergs, I prayed.
Denali's Park safari and dog sledging was awesome!

Cruising through this fabulous scenery...

When we were children
We knew nothing of this planet
In the wood we’d build our dens
Play war games with our plastic guns
And cowboys and Indians
Then I’d be the Lone Ranger
Or Roy Rogers with Trigger,
Sledging in the winter
Swimming naked in the lake
In the heat of summer
Playing doctors...

Oh great. It is time to build a snowman in a fire place. Just ensure even placement and it is imperative to use the fire guard. Shrink sinking surrounding shaping shifting sailing sip. A shapeless garment on a large frame is jumping over road works...

climate change... killing
spring bees...  spiders  many flies
early nesters starve

once joy the seasons...
the charm of springs overture...
winter defies it...

today... house  sparrows
 seen nesting... nature wishes...
hopeful they succeed...

grass... verdant... growing...
hedgerows holding back... afraid...
full spring biding time

jet stream...rioting
lost its way... meandering
disturbing nature

the hill piste lingered
children...

MR NERO
We know you-NERO
For you are, the people’s hero
You have stood in the right station
For the sake of your own nation
Your life’s a source of sledging boldness
What you have you offered in giving
Solid our life is-in your holiness’
Your way is a course to living

We saw...

You never even saw him
as you lay soaking up the sun
tiptoeing with that bucket.
Six years old and out for fun.

The look of shock in your eyes
as the water broke your sleep
I laughed so much; sides ached
as from my eyes tears did weep.

You chased him round...

Summer
Sunny, warm
Strolling, sunbathing, swimming
Ocean, breeze, wind, snow
Hiking, sledging, skiing
Bitter, cold
Winter
