Seasons of the year
Winter days are full of snow,
When trees and flowers forget to grow,
And the birds fly far away
To find a warm and sunny day.
The days of spring are windy and bright.
What a perfect time to fly a kite!
Bees and butterflies play among flowers,
Then hide from the April showers.
Those sweet memories of summer days
Are about quiet stream and trees and shade,
And lazy afternoons by a pool,
Eating ice cream to feel cool.
Then autumn leaves turn brown,
Fall into piles upon the ground.
Farmers work to harvest crops,
As the days are shorter and the temperature drops.
Soon the snowy season will begin,
And it will be a new year once again.
