Yalto
Invented by Edward Ibeh: line 1 to 15: 3,4,2,4,5,3,2,3,2,3,3,5,6,1,5, no rhyme required.

It's snowing even though it's April and we should be celebrating spring, not building snowmen on our lawns. It's cold and windy, there are no tulips or snowdrops. Winter won't walk away, and I’m left feeling blue.

I can't say that I'm surprised, Emile. It's Canada, after all! lol. Here in Baltimore, Maryland it never snows in April. Thank God! Well, July weather should be much better now in your neck of the woods. Hopefully not too hot! Wonderful Yalto, my friend.
