Seasons
By Auntie B 4/9/10

Every season has its gifts
Winter, summer
Spring and fall
But of the four
I do adore
The spring the best of all

Winter's cold
Though snow is nice
I am not such a fan
Of ice
Plus winter's almost colorless
And color is a thing I miss

Summertime is full of heat
And warm humidity
But when it comes to color
Mostly forest green I see

Now autumn, also known as fall
Has color by the ton
But sadly it can be a time
We rarely see the sun.
With wind and rain
The leaves all drop
And they do not ever stop
Until they've fallen
Every one
And then the color
Is all done

But spring, ah spring!
So full of surprise
Each moment's a treat
To delight the eyes
First it's cool
Then it's warm
But it's never too hot
Spring's temperatures
Hit a perfect spot
And the color!
Spring takes you
From winter's grays
To the sweetest pastels
To brighten your days
Pinks, reds, and yellows
The lavenders blue
Any color you like,
Spring has it for you!
Especially the green
It's like nothing you've seen
The splendor of tender
Leaves--precious spring green!

If you ask about seasons
I'll say they're all fine
But now you will know
The true favorite of mine!
