Tis Not Fair

Winter and spring had a tug of war
One wanted to stay 
while the other wanted it to go
Winter said,... today I will snow
Spring said,... no you will go
Winter said,... I will bring a dark dreary day
Spring said,... there is no earthly way
They argued back and forth
Time intervened on the pair
They both cried, tis not fair.
