Seasons, a Limerick…

seasons-846051_1920

When we first met, I was spring, you were summer
We married soon after though you were encumbered
With kids you brought with, then we added our own
Now it nears autumn and all are about grown
If not for the grandkids winter would be a bummer 😀

In response to Mind and Life Matters Limerick Poetry Challenge, Seasons!
