Snowball Fight

by Julian Herbst aged 11

I put on my coat and went outside,

I saw that small Nick and Robert’s snowballs, would collide,
I saw that Robert’s hair was red, because he had it dyed,
I saw Anthony was indeed on Robert’s side,
I saw that Anthony’s tactic, was to wait, and then turn the tide,
I saw that Lenny said that he was neutral, which meant that he had lied,
I saw Joe, the quiet guy, trying to hide,
I saw that Nick had a pile of snowballs – two feet long and two feet wide.

I saw that the snowball fight – was in full stride.

I saw a snowball heading for Robert, which he hadn’t spied,
Robert’s face was covered in snow, that is why he cried;
But Robert wouldn’t give up, for that he had too much pride;
A snowball was about to hit me but I stepped aside,
Now, we are watching Infinity Wall, a craze which has died.
At the end of the day, we will go to the hill, get on our sledges and
down we will glide.
