Winter's Revenge
We came through the winter months
With just a few short days of snow.
Now the daffodils are blooming
In the big fields row on row.
Though the winter months are waning.
White has sifted over gold.
I open up the door to find
The North Wind blowing cold.
A few short days of snow have come
To prove winter is still King.
Though we may be quite impatient,
We must wait awhile for spring.
Now the daffodils are blooming
And the blossoms must be picked.
Winter sprung his big surprise to show
He may be down but he’s not licked.
In the big fields, row on row,
Each March, the workers must relearn,
Despite the daffodils in bloom,
Winter demands all of his turn.
Won a 4th with this
