What a Beautiful Day

I look through the window,
I just can't believe what I see.
Everything is a beautiful green,
It seems like it's early spring.

We haven't had a bit of snow,
Since I can't remember when.
I know it still gets cold out there,
It feels winter has come to it's end.

We can dress in our warm clothes,
That doesn't bother us at all.
At least we can go for a walk,
With no worry that we may fall.

Maybe we are happy too soon,
For tomorow may show some snow.
I guess we should cherish now,
The weather we've come to know.

I heard from so many people,
Of the weather they still have.
I guess I really shouldn't brag.
It can make them very sad.

I know old man winter's still around,
For we can feel the frost in the air.
As long as the snow is gone,
To be honest, I really don't care
