Notes About The Poem

Alpha Lines Poetry Contest- Sponsor Joseph May

Seasons' Greetings

BRUTAL COLD DAY EARLY FEBUARY 
Almost as cold as the week before
Six feet of snow fell late in January 
Please Mr. Winter, let it snow- No more  

BEAUTIFUL COLORED DAISYS EMERGE FREQUENTLY 
Mostly throughout the season of spring
When most everything is green- completely 
When eggshells break and birdies sing 

BEACH CARNIVALS DELIGHTFUL ENJOYABLE FUN 
Young ones playing games outside 
Sunbathers tanning 'neath the sun 
A nice time for a summertime ride 

BEAR CUBS DIE EVERY FALL 
I found one dead out on my range 
One died last year too, if I do recall 
Must be something to do with climate change
