RichB. chimes in as winter slowly, finally yields to spring.

The hounds howl out their baleful woe
as moonlight glitters on spring snow
The evening air has winter's bite
though children play outdoors this night
They laugh and dance and swirl and sing
and learn the love of Winterspring
They chase the moonlight across the way
and care not of the break of day
When new dawn comes their time will end
and spring will lose its winter friend
They laugh and dance and swirl and sing
and learn the love of Winterspring
The season’s winds sing soft and low
and brush away the winter snow
The children watch new life begin
as spring turns all things green again
They laugh and dance and swirl and sing
and learn the love of Winterspring
The children go their separate ways
to share their love on other days
Winter nods its sleepy head
while spring prepares a flower bed
They laugh and dance and swirl and sing
and learn the love of Winterspring.
