Winter Is Not Forever

Winter is not forever,
there is spring, autumn and summer. 
There is a time for a chilly snow, 
and there's a time for waters to flow. 

There is a time for grasses to grow, 
and there's a time for warm sun to show. 
I shall soon feast by the greenery,
and relish the dazzling scenery. 

There is a time for flowers to glow,
like there's a time for the cool wind to blow,
and with the wind, I shall run fast, 
on the field, so plain and vast. 

I shall gallop mightily 
while on my back, she'll ride happily. 
With the leaves of the trees that fly,
I shall gallop fast and high.
