Winds houl, threatening to blow me down, Ice grips my heart, I still hear your laughter sound. Nothing can warm the chill that creeps into my soul, Tears fall relentlessly, in sync with the snow. Eternal dread of Christmas for all my days, Remembering the snowy day God took you from this place
Exciting voyages aboard xebec, with its sharp lateens, travels the salt seas. Rapacious corsair’s keel across a world of plunder. Ocean’s opportunity calls riding waves, rowing calms. Danger braved in storms and squalls, nightime’s peaceful starlight air warm and steady abaft rolling gently on the swell yawing to the rudder’s pull.

Spring, spring Prepare for things like Rain feeding flowers and Ice melting everywhere No more snow, no more hail Great skies, there’s the sun!
Summer, summer Under the shade you’ll likely be Mingling with cold drinks Meeting new friends Eek! Going school shopping Relaxing in the crystal pool
Autumn, autumn Unhappiness as school begins Trees are turning scarlet and gold Unequip shorts, you’ll need jeans Missing the heat when the weather gets cold No more sweltering, blistering days
Winter, winter Icicles grow from rooftops Naughty or nice? Trees are stripped of leaves Eternal frigid, frostiness Rocking around the Christmas tree
