It's a gloomy day;
Spring is on Her way,
yet I feel somewhat depressed.
I enjoy the sun
but there has been none;
today mirrors all the rest.

The birds aren't singing;
Winter's still clinging
and the sky's stained somber grey.
The air is 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,
time gives Her a nudge;
or She will overextend.

I dream of when green
will dapple the scene;
and flowers bloom in color.
But with only white
and no buds in sight,
today seems so much duller.
