The coming months
January brings with it the cold dark nights.
Stoke up the fires and wrap up tight.
February brings with it snowdrops o’ so dear.
Tells us spring is o’ so near.
March brings with it early morning dew.
Starts the day gloriously anew.
April brings with it the golden showers.
And along with it the spring tide flowers.
May brings with it the poppies o’ so red.
It’s time to nurture the flower beds.
June brings with it rain and sun.
It’s time to have a lot of fun.
July brings with it a sense of meaning.
It’s time to do the annual cleaning.
August brings with it warm sunny days.
Helps us chase the blues away.
September brings with it a sense of yearning.
It’s back to school; the skies are turning.
October brings with it ghouls and ghosts.
Plan the party, be the perfect host.
November brings with it burning pyres.
Strike up the match and light the fires.
December brings with it snow-white flakes.
Golden crumble and fairy cakes.
