Free gift form the 'Ssssssnake Hotel' - A Christmas Poetry Anthology
Well folks, it’s that time of year again… mistletoe, mulled wine, that Slade song, Scrooge and the ghosts of Christmas past, present and future - and yet another general election! What better way to celebrate than to check into the Ssssssnake Hotel and kick back with the gift of free poetry.
Brian Moses’ Ssssssnake Hotel is a blog for young writers and readers and this month it features a feast of festive verses from a flamboyant fleet of children’s poets - including a generous handful from the Troika stable… Dom Conlon, Sue Hardy-Dawson, Coral Rumble, Joshua Seigal, Roger Stevens, Chris White, Neal Zetter - and of course Brian Moses himself.
If you’ve ever tried to trap the magic of Christmas Day, struggled with sellotape, unwrapped the moon, wondered what Santa Claus does on his 364 days off, or suspected that snowmen might be to blame for all sorts of naughtiness, then you’ll love these poems. Pull up a mince pie and enjoy them here: Brian Moses' A Christmas Poetry Anthology
Wishing you ‘happy holidays’ from all of us here at Troika.
