"Fair"

“Be fair...”
“It is only fair.”
Then why can I not play
On this chilly spring day?

Fair day!
Today I should play!
Snow already melted.
The water absorbed....

Fair play -
Should be my play day.
The yard still needs raking.
The brush still needs clearing.

Fair way -
Cold remains though out.
Chills may carry the day.
Oh’ this fair weather play!
