Poem on Preposition
1. Below is grass above is snow beyond the mountains lies the snow across the frozen lake we go above the clouds are full of snow inside the house nice and warm on the trees is snow around me its very cold thought out the days I spend except when spring comes.
2. Over the steep hill, under the blue sky, across the long bridge, down the hill, into a fast run, through the thick trees, past the other runners, through the pouring rain, under the red hot sun, into my house for a rest
