                                           The Four Seasons

                                       Spring, season of birth
                                     Spreads beauty on earth;
                                      Flowers of youth bloom
                                      Summer to herald soon;

                                     Summer, season to sweat,
                                         To sow seeds ahead,
                                      Care for one`s seedlings
                                   And hail harvest`s greetings;

                                 Autumn, foliage turns yellowish,
                                      Flowers curl with anguish
                                      Chilly frost turns feverish:
                                         Time heaven to relish;

                                    Winter`s frosty, snowy cold
                                         Retains earth on hold,
                                     Chills the weakened heart,
                                      Foretells time to depart.

Thanks, dear poetess, for visiting my page and appreciating my write. Spring is evidently the best season of the year for many. In tropical climes, we have broadly only two seasons, namely, warm summer and mild winter, which is very close to spring in temperate climes. Wish you pleasant reading.
