Seasons
Everyone knows that there are four seasons in a year: spring, summer, autumn and winter. Each of them lasts 3 months.
The weather in spring is generally mild but sometimes the days are really cold, especially in the beginning of the season. It is the time when everything awakes from its winter sleep.
Summer is the hottest season. Summer nights are short, but wonderful, the days are long. In summer the sky is clear and cloudless. It is pleasant to spend this season by the seaside or somewhere in the country. People go there to sunbathe, to swim or to have a rest.
Talking about autumn, I guess it isn't as nice as summertime. It's a season of winds and beautiful sunsets. The weather gets cooler and cooler. The leaves turn yellow and reddish and fall down to the ground and the birds migrate to warm countries. The sun loses its force. It often rains. It is the season of harvesting. A spell of sunny weather in September is called Indian summer or «Golden Autumn». In the end of November it sometimes snows. Though some people like autumn, because it is full of colours, but to my thinking it's a dull and rainy season.
Winter is the coldest time of the year. It is time of snow and frost. It is time of New Year and Christmas. In winter the temperature rarely can cross the point of ten or fifteen centigrade below freezing point. It is getting colder day by day. The sun shines rarely and it snows often. But everything looks so pretty covered with snow.
So in every season there are bright and dark sides. But we must be thankful together whatever the weather.
