The Need For Knowing

Tell me about winter Father,

Tell me about the cold kisses,

and the longing touches of the wind

The pinches on my cheeks and

the tickling on my nose

Tell me about winter Father

For there is more I want to know

How it comes and it goes

and how it snows

Tell me more!

Tell me more!

Tell me why such a cold season is such a cheery time

And why the snow swallows me up

Oh look how high!

Tell me about winter Father

I want to know more

About Mrs. Winter

And how she goes.
