Seasons

September
September is the time for school,
It can be warm, it can be cool.
But pupils are to read, to write,
To do their lessons. Am I right?

October
October days are short and cold.
A lot of leaves are red and gold.
They cover roads in the park
And rustle softly in the dark.

November
It rains and snows in November.
Last year was snowy, I remember.
We’ve got a real snowfall
And all became white after all.

*
Autumn colour’s golden – red,
Just like on your picture, Fred?
Empty fields and bare trees,
Leaves are dancing in the breeze.

*
Autumn nights are so long
And I hear a winter song.
It’s inside me and around:
In the sky, in sheets and ground.

December
I like December,
More than November.
I play ice hockey
With my brother Rocky.

January
On the first of January
All celebrate the New Year.
And how we will spend this day,
So we shall live the coming year.

February
The little month of February
Comes always after January.
The winter is becoming sad,
The weather’s windy, often bad.

*
Snowfall, snowfall!
I can make a snowball.
It is round , it is white,
So nice and so bright.

*
Winter is a lovely season
And I’ve got for that a reason:
I can ski and sledge and skate,
Throwing snowballs. It’s just great!

*
May I go to the rink?
Lights there are green and pink
It’s a pity I skate bad.
Will you teach me, dearest Dad?

*
Why do children like New Year?
Why is it so nice and dear? –
They like to play, to dance and hop...
And presents make them feel tip-top.

*
Christmas is a holy day.
Kids get presents, joy and play.
They like fir-trees with bright toys.
All are merry – girls and boys.

*
Winter holidays are nice
We can sledge and play on ice.
We can ski in wintry wood
And be always in a good mood.

June
Big holidays begin in June.
The sun shines so bright at noon.
The flowers blossom and the grass is green.
The fruits of the garden are to be seen.

July
Journey is splendid in July.
Why? There’s only one reply:
Days are sunny, nights are warm.
Seas are quiet, with no storm.

August
Nature is so bright in August.
It’s the best time for the forest.
Crops are ripening in the field.
The harvest comes of the yield.

*
Summer days are so fine! Often I get up at nine,
Not at 7, when it’s school...
And I run then to the pool.

*
What a pleasure it’s to swim
And to play with brother Tim
And then to lie in the sun,
Feeling joy and having fun.

*
Summer holidays are great!
I can go to sleep quite late.
I can play with friends till night.
Hide and seek or make a kite.

*
If the weather isn’t cool,
We all go to the pool
We can ran and bathe, and swim
And be healthy and so trim.

*
We can go to the wood,
If the weather’s very good.
We can gather mushrooms, berries,
Pick ripe strawberries and cherries.

March
March stands between two seasons.
It has for that two reasons:
It’s cold still, the snow is melting.
And at the door the spring is waiting.

April
April weather is unsteady
And you always must be ready
For the wind, for the rainfall.
For the sunshine, after all.

May
I like the merry month of May,
For I can play the whole day,
With friends, with little doggie Spot,
The weather’s warm and even hot.

*
The sun shines bright,
But it s cold at night.
The grass becomes green
First flowers can be seen

*
Days become longer
Feelings are stronger
Shortering nights
Bring new delights.
