Blowing In the Wind

A whispering wind on an autumn day
 Calls to the leaves to come out and play
 Like birds of a feather they release from the trees
 Taking flight in the sky so free

 A cold wind blows on a winter day
 And calls for the snow to come out and play
 They swirl and they twirl and pirouette 
 With a beauty that's hard to forget
 
 A warm wind blows on a summer day
 And calls for butterflies to come out and play
 They flutter and float and dance in the breeze
 And alight on flowers with nectar to please

 A cool wind blows on a day in spring
 As questions of love on the blooms are pinned
 Forget-me-not wishes, what will they bring?
 'The answer is blowing in the wind'
