The Seasons - Iambic Pentameter - Blank Verse

Winter Winter glows, it's drifts, it's plains, soft and white. It's cold belies a threat to all, fear it! It's there come night or day death don't forget! Wrap up warm, keeps death at bay, heed, now play! Spring If it sticks to form, new life created. Greedy winter lingers Jack Frost fickle. Climate change is causing all life to stress! But she, Mother Nature forced, her plight doomed! Summer The best for a very long time, warning, Presents problematic drought, hosepipe bans! Use it wisely, enjoy, have loads of fun. Summer, time for laughter, seaside picnics. Autumn The end results of spring, summer, their plight! For most flora, respite and autumn hues, Orange, yellow and red and gold, enjoy! Eyesights, banquets, behold the joy of death! Climate Change The cause, planet earth has tilted, a fact! Nothing to do with pollution but heed Don't be complacent pollution must stop! It does affect and help climate warming!
