Analysis of Winter is Gone

Vanessa Johnson 1980 (St. James)



Winter is gone
And now it's spring
I can't wait to see what
Summer will bring
 No more snowman to make
Instead I will feed the ducks in the lake
When summer is over
Then comes fall,
Which is the best season of all.
That's when I get to play in the leaves
That falls from the maple trees.
Then I will sigh when November ends
Because in December
I will have to face the cold again.
