The season is long
Night and darkness
Day is missed
Could it be that the weather man
Forgot to change the plugs
On last year's sun fuse blown
This is what powers day
He went to bed a' left
Darkness to gloom on light
Spring is late,
The sunbirds are not heard
Singing in such sweet voice, known
Silver and gold can not
Buy the need of man
Too many of us to satisfy
The season is late,
The sun, the giver of life
Is much needed
For the candle of life
Is on the brink of burn out,
It sits in flicker of melted wax
And few walk with smiles
On their face like holiday,
The weather man is to be told
Spring is late, joy is owed
Happiness in tow
Flowers to blossom
Night and darkness
Day is missed
Could it be that the weather man
Forgot to change the plugs
On last year's sun fuse blown
This is what powers day
He went to bed a' left
Darkness to gloom on light
Spring is late,
The sunbirds are not heard
Singing in such sweet voice, known
Silver and gold can not
Buy the need of man
Too many of us to satisfy
The season is late,
The sun, the giver of life
Is much needed
For the candle of life
Is on the brink of burn out,
It sits in flicker of melted wax
And few walk with smiles
On their face like holiday,
The weather man is to be told
Spring is late, joy is owed
Happiness in tow
Flowers to blossom

ReplyDeleteWhen he is entrusted with some responsibility, he had better not "forget" to plug in the fuse on time... whheeww.. But at least I CAN hope that Spring will be here soon...
