Seasons
Fall freezes into winter
 As the air gets cold and dry
 The holidays are around the bend
 And snow falls from the sky
 When will the blizzard end?
 Our new year begins filled with expectation
 We gather with our kin
 Until the end of Christmas vacation
 Then shortly the winter chills
 Begin to calm down
 And the grass peeks through the snow on the hills
 Before we know it, not a speck of snow can be found!
 
 Because winter has melted into spring
 There is green grass everywhere,
 Birds singing their songs of cheer,
 And the smell of flowers in the air
 As raindrops fall tear by tear.
 The sun doesn’t hide behind the clouds anymore,
 And the sky is blue
 Except when rain comes knocking at the door.
 In the morning the grass is covered with dew,
 And flowers bursting with color
 There is also an occasional dandelion
 And butterflies that flit and flutter
 Because spring goes out like a lamb and in like a lion!
 
 Next spring is heated up into summer
 School is out
 The children can play
 Scream and shout
 Until the end of the day
 They can float in the pool
 Or swim in the ocean
 Until their bodies are cool
 And apply lots of suntan lotion
 If they want to play under the sun
 At home or on vacation in many different places
 And spend endless days of fun
 With friends, family and other familiar faces!
 
 Summer cools down into fall
 The wind comes is and blows away
 All of summer’s memories
 Of the carefree days of play
 Now they will consist of tests, quizzes, and summaries.
 Since school is about to start,
 Kids of all ages roam the halls
 To classes such as math, English, and art.
 These children range from short to tall,
 They look out the windows 
 To see the changing leaves
 Of all different oranges, reds, and yellows,
 And say to themselves, “Let vacation start. Please!”
