The Four Seasons

SEASONS CONTEST
Sponsor: Shadow Hamilton

Four seasons create an earthly bond
Outside weather transforms beyond
Under the ground rises perfect lily buds
Rain sprinkles while purple tulips flood

Summer arrives with the boiling sun
Evening fireworks for laughter and fun
Autumn prevails wearing orange and red 
Savoring bonfires before the kids go to bed
On top of the roof with Santa and his sleigh 
Nutcrackers and a snowman during winter days
Seasons wrapped together in four different ways




Fresh after the snow seedlings turn into entwined roots, green topiary with gentle hues painted with shades. Then the dog days of summer where bumblebee’s buzz, with swimming pools and hot sunshine Mother Nature made. The equinox compels the night time with a low harvest moon, leaflets of blades falling like rain with piles for kids to jump. Snowmen and hot cocoa are necessary to keep us all warm, while the jolly ol’ St. Nick gets stuck cuz’ he’s too plump. ~Four seasons create an earthly bond~ Date Written: April 7, 2016
