Poet-lmism.
Said a poet, Il never mind snow,
Nor the mercury going below
And I feel no cold chill,
But instead a warm thrill,
For I'm writing OF summer, you knoWI
And in summer / never mind heat,
Nor the dust, nor the noise In the street
am writing of snow,
And the cold winds that blow;
Or OF icicles, white frost, and sleet.
Now tho tickle the springtime may be,
Why its whima and its moods can't hurt
me;
For I'm then in the thran
OF the beauties Of fall,
And escape all spring fever, you see.
And tho others may think autumn is sad
/ have never found that season bads
And but joy does it bring,
For I'm writing of spring,
And there's nothing to do but be glad6
