Season's Reasons

Spring renews earth and all it holds More green unfolds Young ones at play Life sings like jay Summer spreads warm sunshine and heat More lazy feet Walks in the sand Life gets sun-tanned Winter brings frozen snow and ice More of white spice Nipping wind blows Life simply slows 07.20.2021

Well said, seasons have their reasons, yet alas, man wants it cool when it is warm; and warm, when cozy and cool. A good backgrounder to the poem, educative, congrats for the win

Jo, thank you for the captivating narrative before your poem. Wow! I was visiting in Minnesota and I woke up to the light at 5:30. Didn’t realize it was lighter even in Minnesota during the Summer. Love the Winter, however I need the changing of seasons. Congratulations!
