Snow

by Ava Ballard and Roger Stevens aged 7 and 103

Mum what’s snow?
Why?
Because I’ve never seen it.

Mum, what’s a tree or a bee?
A bee is an animal and a tree is nature.

Mum why is the sky blue?
Why?
Because it would look better if it were green

Mum, why are spiders wriggly?
Why?
Because there’s one crawling up your leg.

Aaaaahhhhhhggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

    Hi everyone. About these Mum, question and answer poems. To make them really good you have to either make them longer, so that Mum really is really fed up and shouts nooooo at the end, OR think up an unexpected ending. I’ve “co-written” this one with Ava to show you what I mean.
