A poem from Toitoi
Winter in the forest
The clouds sneezed, spraying gushes of snow to the ground.
The cold air licked the trees,
causing leaves to dance down
on to the soft white blanket of snow.
The naked trees shivered
as they had lost their clothes.
The cabin shuddered
through the cold frosty winter's night.
Words by Adam Andrews, age 10
