The ground is covered with snow.    There is ice on all the plants       like stone flowers.                                                 (by Darren) The frost is cold.    Spiky blades of grass        crackle under your feet.                                                   (by Peter) The sky is black,    the moon shines on the ice,       the ice is silver.                                                     (by Sarah)
