Wiarton Willie

Please come out and leave your shadow behind

For winters weather has been quite unkind

Snowy days and cold bitter wind

Have left me feeling a bit chagrined

I look forward to an early spring

When the robins’ red breast sing

And the grass is a vivid green

With meadows that look more serene

Covered in lovely wildflowers

That display mother nature’s impressive powers
