The Four Seasons - Sq

Winter is here it starts to snow 
People are cosy by fireside glow
Christmas time brings fun and cheer 
It starts to snow winter is here.

Flowers now bloom it must be spring
Song birds happy they start to sing
We've left behind the winters gloom
It must be spring flowers now bloom.

Heat from the sun, temperatures rise
Longer days with early sunrise
Beach and barbecues having fun
Temperatures rise, heat from the sun. 

It's getting cold Autumns here now 
Summer season now takes a bow 
Amazing colours, reds and gold 
Autumns here now it's getting cold.
