The wind was howling,
The leaves were blowing.
I zip up my coat,
My hands never showing.
I jump out of my way
On a crunchy looking leaf.
The brisk breath blows again
And I chatter my teeth.
As I run into my house,
The warmth's a good feeling.
'Cause after the outdoors,
The heat's quite appealing.
Before you know it, it's winter
And I'm walking around
As the powdery white flakes
Dance 'till hitting the ground.
The falling flurries of snow
Rest on my nose
And the whipping winter wind
Sends chills up my toes.
The children are bundled
In puffy jackets so warm
They keep them all toasty
As they play in the storm.
Soon, the rain pours down
Like tears from the sky
But after it passes,
Chirping birds soar by.
The garden starts to sprout
Green leaves and pretty flowers
And the kids playing outside
Increase by the hour.
The sun's rays are shining
And we're out of school,
But swimming and ice cream
Make summer more cool.
The children, like me
All dread for education
So we all have fun
It's a school-free celebration.
But now the air's harsher,
Melancholy kids board the bus
For it's already September
And we're making a fuss.
We're back in school now,
The seasons went fast.
Next time summer comes,
We'll make it last!
