Spring Forward

This winter I am so much over
I need to run out in the clover
Time for spring to forward
Maybe I'll just move shoreward
And spend my time as a fearful rover.

Contest:  Spring Forward

Ok Janet - to give you baby steps IF you start a limerick the traditional way- your rythym will START out correctly- you can start [There was a] or [There once was a] limericks traditionally use a name & a place [This is not necessary for the contest or once you have the hang of it] The lines are normally LONG/LONG/short/short/LONG
