James Meaney (12/16/92 / Florida, I now live in Ak)
Spring
If spring lasted forever
I'd never have to say goodbye
to when summer ended
or when the fall leaves died
If spring lasted forever
I'd get out of bed whenever
Cause school would not exist
No winters in December
& snow I wouldn't miss
If spring lasted forever
Road trips would too
Drive to the interstate of nowhere
Get lost without a clue
if spring lasted forever
I'd have no worries of sorts
because worries are for seasons
& Spring is love for short
if spring lasted forever
'I might add more'
