The wind is blowing cooler than before
The sun is beginning to fade today
And hearts of children playing melt away

The Seasons switch from left to right quickly
And saddening days come when snow blows down
A terrible sight to see white blankets
As they do cover the whole troubled town

They snuff and sneer as shovels come to work
They pile snow onto the lawns and scowl
The cars get stuck and people shovel out

The snow came late so children are in school
No playing here; they have to stay and learn
A scream is not in sight; laughter has gone
No marks are left from sleds or boots in town

Alls quiet till’ the time of day has come
The bell will ring and children laugh and run
The fun is finally here for today
