A Merry Chase

Spring starts sets the pace
Summer flies then falls behind
Autumn takes the wand

Primed to win the race
Clears three hurdles just to find
Winter's grasping hand

Cold with no remorse
Obstacles o'ercome and then
Spring joins in again

I like how you did a chain of haiku to show the seasons in a race, though I don't know where the finish line is! (though it seems winter lasts longer every year)

In this race there is no "finish", Michelle. The seasons just go on and on and on.....Thanks for the read.
