Winter

After winter spring will come.Hans Andersen.

Winter finds out what summer lays up.

Winter is summer’s heir.

Winter never rots in the sky.

Winter thunder makes summer wonder.

Winter weather and women’s thoughts often change.

Winter’s thunder and summer’s flood,
Never boded Englishman good.

There is winter enough for the snipe and woodcock too.
