While the leaves flow past my hair
Winter calls my name
Summer can be vicious and so unfair
that I'm so glad fall came

While spring lovers jump for joy
I sit at home and sob
While Fall may be a little coy
Winter is always doing it's job

Heavy rainfall
humidity rising
that's the downfall
of Summer disguising

The author's comments:
Over here Summers are incredibly humid and hot. It never snows in the winter so what most people consider their spring, is our winter. I love winter and have been trying to do everything I can to try and make time fly so I can feel that cool breeze on my face. Of course, watched pots never boil, so I'm not having much luck.
