          Spring
        
        
          Bald cold trees feel a tickle,
        
        
          Young refilled Gobi bears wake and bicker.
        
        
          The wind rests and closes its eye,
        
        
          And slowly sadly says good bye.
        
        
          The agitated animals aggregate affably.
        
        
          Summer
        
        
          As the bright sun shines,
        
        
          The locals tremble and whine.
        
        
          The worn out camels gaze,
        
        
          The big hot fireball blazes.
        
        
          Everyone baked in the hot oven.
        
        
          Fall
        
        
          The flame-coloured leaves fall,
        
        
          Like beautiful ruby butterfly angels.
        
        
          Some charming flowers bloom,
        
        
          The fearful and angry wind booms.
        
        
          The wind rules the whole Gobi.
        
        
          Winter
        
        
          A scary snow storm roars,
        
        
          Pearl snowflakes accurately scores.
        
        
          Everyone feels the breeze,
        
        
          As they shiver and starts to freeze.
        
        
          Whoosh! The Gobi turns all chalky.
