Snowman

Standing

All alone

Proudly in the garden

Coal for eyes

Carrot for a nose

Pipe in his mouth

Smiling happily

All watchful

In a white landscape

Red scarf around his neck

Black buttons down his front

Twigs sticking out for the arms

Looking so smart standing here

Amongst all this wintry scenery 

Watching out for Father Christmas

So then he can go join his friends

At the festive season celebrations

For our winter wonderland guard

Standing there in our garden

Merry Christmas everyone!
