the elbowing out of winter


Why is Winter the villain?
Why is summer the hero?
Winter brings smiles,
Winter brings presents,
Winter brings new birth.
Summer brings drought
Summer starves the flowers
Suffocates them
Winter gives them time to sleep
Winter replenishes souls
Winter is a time for baking,
For cuddling,
For woollen jumpers,
For scarves, hats and gloves,
Summer drains water out of the body
Summer brainwashes
Summer is the real enemy
The real enemy hides
Summer disguises itself
Elbows out winter
Winter is trying to save us.
