From spring to fall the year makes merry,
With days to days that chant and call;
With hopes to crown and fears TO bury
With crowns of flowers, and flowers for pail,
With bloom, and Bong, and bird, and berry,
That fill the months with festival,
From spring to fall.
Who knows if ever skies were dreary
With shower and cloud and waterfall?
While yet the worlds good heart is CHEEKY
Who knows II rains will ever brawl?
The storm thinks long, the winds wax weary,
TIL Winter come to wind up all
