END OF WINTER by ANNETTE WYNNE

First Line: WE WELCOME JACK FROST WHEN HE COMES
Last Line: SPRINGTIME'S COMING—RUN, JACK, RUN!
Subject(s): MARCH (MONTH); SEASONS; SPRING;

WE welcome Jack Frost when he comes,
Jack Frost with windy drums,
Jack Frost that comes to town
With the snowflakes falling down.

But at last it's time to go—
Jack Frost with wind and snow,
Hurry Jack Frost, hurry on,
Windy days are nearly gone.

Long ago we liked your play,
Liked the noise of wind all day,
But, Jack Frost, your playing's done—
Springtime's coming—run, Jack, run!
