Piles of snow beneath my boots
chilly winds blowing everywhere
snow keeps mounting on the posts
on the windows and on the roads
shovels outside,
soups inside
hot and rich,
chicken and corn
coming back from all the work
this is what I look for
the warm chestnuts,
the cracking fire
this is my winter warmth
I enjoyed this poem because of the details that reminded me of the winters I played in in Colorado, the specific “crackling” fire, the “snow mounting on the posts”.

Family Friend Poems
When I was little, Xbox was the coolest and newest thing. Everyone wanted one, which included me of course. So my brother and I got one for christmas. We would play for hours on it. We couldn’t do without this box of cords and chips that made a virtual world come to life on our very own television. It was the most hi-tech console on the market. It had So many games, from Halo, to Call of Duty, and more!
While I used it, I had so much fun playing video games every night. I could do things on Xbox that I couldn’t ever do in real life. I could fly in spaceships, or even make my own world, but the best part is getting to play with up to four friends in co-op and versus adventures in our favorite games. That is why I loved Xbox so much. If it weren’t for Xbox, I wouldn’t be playing video games.
