After when the seeds have shot,
what now feels is not very hot,
why, oh, why has it changed?
Sadly, the sky has been rearranged.
For she did like the summer,
but the weather is a bummer.
What now peeps over the clouds,
is a crowd of cold and snow.
After all that patience and tolerance,
outcome has been an unexpected consequence.
Therefore after the breezing winter,
little sprout never bloomed a splinter.
