And Then The Fountain Froze

The cool breeze drifts in off the ocean
Not quite warm yet
One of the days we still wait for
Should be more to come

Waiting patiently
Wondering when brown turns green
One of the days we wait for
Should be here soon

Sprouts are sprouting
Warm went and then returned
Green is here, none too soon
This is almost the day we waited for

Day on the water
Doesn’t get much better
Warm got warmer
Is this the day we waited for?

Green then goes brown
The cool breeze drifts in off the ocean
Warm went, not returning
And then the fountain froze
