Bug Bye Winter

"Springtime is the land awakening. The march winds are the morning yawn!"

Buh Bye Winter

The icy air still lingers and chills me to the bone

Each winter as I age a year seems the worst I've ever known

The sharp intruding fingers that the northern wind has blown

Sends shivers down my spine and makes the water hard as stone

Spring is around the corner but is afraid to come on out

Winter always rules, that's what life is all about

The calender tells the truth until there isn't any doubt

The warm air sneaks in through the branches while the birds begin to shout

Spring fairies flitter through the air singing "Dear winter that's enough!"

Winter takes an exit and leaves us in a huff

Just like a grumpy grandpa with his voice so hoarse and gruff

Winter stalks off slowly with his snow and ice and stuff

The gentle warmth of spring brings a smile to our faces

Happily we work outside to remove the winter traces

It is time to brush the horses now and put them through their paces

And head out in a canter to now warm wide open spaces
