What will winter bring?

This poem is written for the100wcgu at Julia's Place with the prompt ...and winter will bring...
What will winter bring?
Spring brought light and warmth on my face
With blossom and daffodils all over the place
Summer delivered heat and days outdoors
Playing on the beach or inside on cool floors
Autumn provided loads of leaves on the ground
With webs and dew and conkers to be found
And winter will bring, well I'm not yet quite sure
But I hope there'll be snow and snowmen galore.

  4. Ah, snowmen galore is definitely one of the positives of winter. Used to love making them. For me winter is always a long season. I enjoyed your poem.

    I hope you will also include a link to Poetry Jam where you posted this, in addition to Julia's place, which I am not familiar with.

    1. I'm a winter birthday and I'm sure that's why I like winter - when it's properly cold and bright. I'll be providing a link to poetry jam as soon as blogger stops misbehaving

    1. I like just an inch on the ground, not too much but enough to make the world beautiful.

  10. Neat seasons poem here and thanks for responding to my Poetry Jam prompt. Just wondering what a conker is--must be some kind of nut? Or tree see?

  12. How fun. We moved to the south a few years ago. Living without winter (for the kids) was had. It snowed one year and they were out all day showing the other kids how best to build a snow man and fort as some kids had never done that before!!
