Spring Lament

I beg you, Mother Nature, please-
The snow is still up to our knees!
Heed me now as I implore
Please! Do not send us any more!

For you it’s light and fluffy fun,
But on my heart it weighs a ton!
‘Cause green is what I hunger for-
Sunshine on a sandy shore...

A bathing suit, and healing rays;
Oh, Mother Nature, send us days
Of growing warmth that quickly will
Erase the lingering winter chill...

I beg you, break this icy spell
So we can bid the cold farewell.
