Timely Seasons
Spring forward,
march boldly into April,
stop and smell the flowers,
then skip into June.
Jump into Summer
with beach barbecues
from July through September.
Fall
back into your jacket
for bonfires and autumn leaves,
until November fades.
Winter drift
into snowbanks on toboggans
and sip hot chocolate
until February.

Very nice! There are fun aspects of each season.
Barbara — there are, but I like Spring, summer & Fall the best!
I DID vote! And I DID try to pick yours… but darned if I know if I DID or not! Guess we’ll find out tomorrow!
Great poem! And the title fits it perfectly!
Melli — as long as you voted, I am content!
I voted over there and if you can believe this one of those limericks is mine LOL Can you stand it? Great poem Q 🙂
So Thom, did you vote for one that you were absolutely positive you knew who it belonged to?
what a lovely poem for seasons!
Rubz — thanks.
this wraps it up nicely
but i wish there was a ban on winter lasting almost half a year 🙁
Polona — here winter lasts about 3 months. Have you ever considered emigrating?
Great use of “fall back” and “drift” — I enjoyed this one. Hot chocolate is the only thing winter’s good for IMHO!
