Winter beats his wild winds against the resisting earth
His snows smother the emerging life
His ice freezes the newborn
Trying to retain his frigid rule
Spring, rocked by Winters ferocity
Bows her head against the storm
Her strong quiet defiance
Brings hope to her children
The patience of Spring prevails
Winters clouds break
Warmth and light return
Growth begins again in the young
But Winter will not relent easily
His frozen fingers desperately cling
As he hides from Spring
Shunning the sun in shadowed hollows
Spring knows time is on her side
Her strength increases by the day
Winter will have to give way
And accept defeat.
The children of Spring play on Winters remains
Unaware that he just rests
Gathering his strength and rage
Ready to unleash on the earth once more.
