The joy of a rich harvest.

To the sweet murmur of leaves and plants,
The goatherd sleeps, with his faithful dog at his side.

When I think of winter, I think of mostly snow and ice. The colors I usually think of are shades of white and blue. Emotions often associated with winter are feelings of sadness for some people while others may look at it and feel a sense of happiness. It is all up to someone's opinion on what they think of winter.
Activities that I think of when thinking about winter include sledding, shoveling snow, building snowmen, and making snow angels. Yay!

Frozen and trembling in the icy snow,
In the severe blast of the horrible wind,
As we run, we constantly stamp our feet,
And our teeth chatter in the cold.
What is winter first movement
We walk on the ice with slow steps,
And tread carefully, for fear of falling.
Symphony, If we go quickly, we slip and fall to the ground.
Again we run on the ice,
Until it cracks and opens.
We hear, from closed doors,
Sirocco, Boreas, and all the winds in battle.
This is winter, but it brings joy.

The hunters, at the break of dawn, go to the hunt.
With horns, guns, and dogs they are off,
The beast flees, and they follow its trail.
Already fearful and exhausted by the great noise,
Of guns and dogs, and wounded,
The exhausted beast tries to flee, but dies
What is autumn last movement
Each peasant ceases his dance and song.
The mild air gives pleasure,
And the season invites many
To enjoy a sweet slumber.

Alas, how just are his fears,
Thunder and lightening fill the Heavens, and the hail
Slices the tops of the corn and other grain.

A gentle breeze blows,
But suddenly, the north wind appears.
The shepherd weeps because, overhead,
Lies the fierce storm, and his destiny.

Dance nymphs and shepherds,
At Spring's brilliant appearance.
