SNOWMAN SNIFFLES

Snowman Sniffles was made by children at play.

Made out of snow on a snowy winter’s day.

In Snowman talk, he was 3 snowballs high.

Snowman Sniffles was a very cool guy.

He was dressed with a scarf around his neck,

And a top hat for his head.

And Snowman Sniffles stayed outside,

When everyone else was warm in bed.

Snowman Sniffles pulled his scarf a little tighter,

As an icy wind blew through the air.

Snowman Sniffles was frozen solid,

Wishing he had something more to wear.

“I get a scarf and a hat”, he said,

“and sometimes a broom to tote,

But what this Snowman really needs,

Is a warm winter coat.”
