The months poem

The Months by Sara Coleridge adapted to Spain by J.Wilson
Copy this poem into your notebook with your best writing






January brings the snow, makes the flu virus grow.

February brings the carnival and the sardine that is burnable.

March brings father's Day on the 19th March,  San Jose

April brings fiestas all over Spain, bullfights and flamenco sometimes with rain.

May brings blossom to the almond trees and Trinity exams make us ill at ease

June brings  jasmine, poppies  roses.  Fills the children's hand with posies.
Hot July brings holidays galore.  No more homework anymore.

August brings the grapes for wine, fat and juicy on the vine.

Warm September brings the olives on the tree and back to school for you and me.

Fresh October brings Halloween,  ghosts and witches begin to scream.

Dull November brings the cold at last, stews and soups are eaten fast.

Chill December brings the sleet, blazing fire, and Santa's treat.
