December brought forth Winter.

January an unceasing chill,

and February's cold seemed killing,

yes, March's wind relentless still!

In late April a welcome thaw,

and at the earth small creature knaw,

constant  cascading of the rain,

gives earth glamor as she change.

Spring is here and children shout,

birds are singing and rodents about.

Squirrels, chipmunk, and the deer,

gearing, rearing their young so near.

Through the ground the flowers break,

what wondrous beauty they make.

May fragrances loom in the air,

tulips, roses, love's thoroughfare!

The glee and joy in water kids splash,

Winters memory is just an ash,

blown into the distant wind.

Summer is here where God has been!
