Winter Won't Budge

Though Spring's on Her way; it's a gloomy day, and I feel somewhat depressed. I've looked for the sun, and yet I've seen none; today mirrors all the rest. The birds aren't singing; for Winter's clinging, and the sky's stained somber grey. The air feels chilly; it may sound silly, but I fear Winter may stay. There is not much snow, just an inch or so; but April is near its end. When Winter won't budge, Sol gives Her a nudge; so She'll not overextend. Spring's brush, dipped in green; will dapple the scene, while wildflowers add color. But with only white, and no buds in sight: Winter seems even duller.
