Analysis of Seasons



Scattered showers
Blossoming flowers
The warmth from the sun
Spring has begun

Flowers have blossomed
Showers have scattered
The warming sun
Summer has begun

Trees shed there leaves
Leaves cover my shed
The cooling sun
Autumn has begun

Snow on the ground
Grounded by the snows
Lifeless sun
Winters begun
