Winter

Winter time, it brings me downIce cold winds, snow on the groundSoon I feel the summer breezesWatch it as it carefully seizesThistle down, send it 'roundSlowly upwards, slowly downGently moving, never a soundWish that I could hibernateGo to sleep and never wakeUntil the sun comes shining once againWinter time, it brings me downOvercoats and scarves thrown 'roundCold, dark nights, dense wintry galesFrozen feet in snowy trailsSlowly homeward, trudging throughWind and rain and hailstorms tooWhere's the sun, I wish I knewWinter time, it brings me downIce cold winds, snow on the groundWinter time, it brings me downOvercoats and scarves thrown 'round
