Winter's chill falls back
Retreating from Spring's warm rise
Ice and snow be gone
A battle rages
A fight between hot and cold
Spring's warmth kept at bay
What will each day bring?
One knows not what to expect
Cloudy or sunny
Some days, sweet and warm
Others bite with icy cold
Seasons pass and change
Trading cold for heat
Seasons show us nature's way
Battle for new life
Struggle to emerge
Winter's embrace, cold as death
Struggle to suppress
The cycle renews
Life breaking death's icy grip
Dawning a new day
