Seasons Fight is Here
He comes unexpectedly
 Clothed in white
 His face sparkling and gleaming
 He roams the streets blowing his cooled frost onto the town
 He is disappointed
 He is mad
 For the people of this city do not welcome him with open arms
 Instead they nag and complain at the toil he has given them
 Days go by fast and spring comes into the town
 Winter cries as melting frozen drops fall from his eyes
 
 Spring kicks him out for this is now her town
 She chuckles and laughs with her good friend the sun
 The people cheer for she is now here
 She destroys the snow and dances through the streets
 Her cheeks turn warm and rosy
 She wears a vine made of flowers 
 And picks daisies from the fields to give to the people
 She is jolly 
 And spreads joy to the people
 Spring Fever is in the air
 Until one day; when summer comes to town
 
 He is full of warmth
 More warmth then spring can ever give
 He takes over the city and forces spring to leave
 He declares school to be over
 For it is too hot to be inside
 He slips and slides down the streets
 Wearing his suit made of water and sun 
 As his hair made of blue liquid flows with the wind
 He is sweating and sunburned 
 But smiles
 He splashes and sprays the hot people with refreshing cool water
 They cheer for he has brought them the funnest time of the year
 He opens all the pools
 People pile in
 He feels joy and knows he's giving them a good time
 Children play and swim enjoying their days off
 Until fall comes to this joyful town
 
 He's disgusted
 How dare they laugh and play all day
 They should be in school today
 So he blows cool air into the town
 Sending the heat and summer south for the season
 Fall is now here
 He comes clothed in a brown, yellow and red leafed toga
 The people sigh and frown
 Because he sends them back to school
 His eyebrows droop down
 Slanting towards his nose
 They don't know what he is about to do for them
 It's not his fault he had to send them back to school
 Kids have to learn sooner or later
 He knows they will forgive him after this
 He rides on the wind around town
 He uses his magical
 Colorful touch
 To turn the leaves from green 
 To orange
 To brown
 To red
 To purple
 The bells are ringing
 Schools out for the day
 The children shriek with joy
 As they ooh and ah at the scenery surrounding them
 They site an artwork in the trees
 And piles of crumbled leaves on the ground
 Children canon ball into the piles among piles of color
 Fall is content
 He has won over the town
 
 No he did not sprinkle snow down
 Or bring summer fun
 Or even bring fresh, smelling, blooming flowers
 No! He brought the magic touch
 The wondrous colors of nature
