Situated in the interrogation room
the figures of the two detectives did loom.
"Winter, where were you when Spring took her final breath?"
"Are you trying to blame me for her death?
Spring was very much alive when I took my leave.
On this I implore that you my word believe.
What happened after that I can't possiblity say.
Perhaps Autumn knows what happened that day."
" Very well then, we'll bring her in for questioning,
for we must get to the bottom of this thing."
Though the detectives persued it with all their might,
they found Autumn's alibi was airtight.
There was only one more suspect to be brought in.
This turned out to be Spring's closest next of kin.
Under the detectives repeated questioning
Summer admitted to having killed Spring.
