I Bid You Adieu
Winter I bid you adieu
your work is now done
the land is rested
and ready for new life
Slowly you release
your icy grip
and the snows
melt into puddles
Infinitely slowly
the land warms up
promise of new life
in every new bud
Spring only round the corner
soon all ablaze with colour
animals and birds give birth
joyful sights and sounds abound
Winter I bid you adieu
take your rest for now
lie in dormancy for the present
your time here done for this year
