Winter
It’s snowing, it’s snowing,
Now we shall have fun!
A blizzard is blowing
And winter’s begun.
Tomorrow the trees
Will be silent and white,
The puddles will freeze,
The sky will be bright,
And we shall go sliding
Away in the snow,
Down the hill gliding
With faces aglow!

A snowman we’ll build With eyes made of stone,
All the night, chilled,
He’ll stand there alone.
And when you come by
A snowball we’ll throw,
And how we will try
To pelt you with snow!
It’s snowing, it’s snowing,
And winter’s begun,
A blizzard is blowing,
Oh, won’t we have FUN!
