Seasons Greetings

S pring is my favourite time of year. P erhaps because it brings me cheer. R elieved to have survived winter I n all it's fearsome,freezing fierceness. N ow we look to renewed growth. G arden bursting, spilling forth. S ummer takes us to the beach. U nder shade we should retreat. M ust get in for a swim M indful that I should stay trim. E veryone we meet wears a smile. R elaxed and chatting for a while A utumn another favourite time. U nder trees twenty shades of brown. T ake a walk down country lanes. U se the light that soon will fade. M ake the most of open air. N urture friendships to prepare. W elcome not those short days. I walk about in a daze. N ight at morning, sun is in bed. T oo cold, must get coal in shed. E nvy those in sunny climes. R etreat until it's Spring's time.

Thank you as always Jan. I see I have cheated for the contest Seasons, as it is twenty lines or less. Ah well, as usual I had fun and that's what counts
