I recall a winter,
The sort of winter that freezes,
Lets the frost settle on a heart,
And everything dies.
I recall a springtime,
The sort of springtime that flowers,
Lets the bloom blossom in a mind,
And everything shines.
I recall an Autumn,
The sort of Autumn that crackles,
Lets the leaves shatter under foot,
And everything breaks.
I recall a summer,
The sort of summer that sparkles,
Lets the lake shimer in an eye,
And everything shines.
