88 Syllables - Springtime Wins

SPRINGTIME WINS
~~~~~~

Winter stalling, snowing,
hiding springtime deep!
Snowdrops stretching, growing,
waiting for a peep.

Fauna, flora ready.
Winter not caring!
Springtime holding, steady,.
awake preparing.

Thawing beckons springtime!.
Hark, the robin sings!
Warming, caring sunshine.
Yay! A bluebell rings!

Springtime hiding summer
up its fertile sleeve.
Wanton, summer thunder,
doth springtime perceive!
