No Stopping Spring

by fm wright

Old Man Winter had made a plan;
for it, he'd need the entire clan:
Ice and Snow, Frost and Freezing Wind.
Alone, or in groups, these he would send,
as he was determined he should stay,
keeping beautiful Spring at bay.
 
The North Wind swept across the land.
In chilling voice he made his demand.
But Spring would not harken to him,
making his chances nigh onto slim.
Unable to chill her to the bone.
Anyway, least not on his own.
 
So Frost agreed he would assist.
His cold allure she couldn't resist.
But his efforts too, proved for naught.
Therefore t'was Ice and Snow then they sought.
In quick succession their trap was layed,
all to make sure that Winter stayed.
 
Quickly they covered up the ground,
just to keep Spring from coming around.
From her warm touch their hopes did quell,
as she soon had them under her spell.
Old Man Winter was now defeated.
From his rule he felt self cheated.




Just a weird little story that developed from the first line coming into my head.
Pays one point and 2 member cents.
