Joys of a Temperate Zone

In spring the sun shines brightly 
     after the wind has blown 
away the clouds 
Bright flowers bloom 
   Let's take a walk by 
            the stream 
  A peaceful day 
             Bright eyed squirrels rush by 
  Overhead a red robin 
    is flying home 
Ah,the joys of spring!
    But now we are nearing winter 
   a light snowfall signals 
the beginning of harsher weather 
Winter does have its joys 
   Holidays  - and the beauty of snow 
       In a temperate climate 
One can take joy in the 
     change of seasons 
  Feel happiness 
     in the special aspects 
of each of the four seasons
